                    target="_blank">Geographischen Instituts</a> der Universit&auml;t Bonn, und der Firma <a 
                    href="http://www.lat-lon.de/" target="_blank">lat/lon</a> gegr&uuml;ndet wurde.

                    sehr begr&uuml;&szlig;t.</p>
            
                    <p>Das freie Software Projekt deegr<font class="orange">ee</font> bietet die
                    derzeit umfangreichste Umsetzung von Bausteinen zum Aufbau einer Geodateninfrastruktur, in der die
                    Standards von Open GIS Consortium (OGC) und ISO/TC 211 implementiert sind. Da die gesamte 
                    Architektur von deegr<font class="orange">ee</font> auf OGC Spezifikationen und
                    Konzepten basiert, gibt es keine Probleme bei der Integration standardisierter Produkte
                    anderer Anbieter (z.B. ArcIMS von ESRI(c)).</p>
            
                    <p>Alle der genannten Server-seitigen Dienste und das 
                    Client Framework werden vom Open Source Projekt 
                    deegr<font class="orange">ee</font> bereitgestellt. deegr<font class="orange">ee</font> 
                    ist freie Software, f&uuml;r dessen Nutzung keine Lizenzkosten anfallen. 
                    Es kann frei kopiert und verteilt werden, auch die Erweiterung des Systemumfangs ist nicht
                    mit Lizenzkosten verbunden. Die Offenheit des Quellcodes unterstreicht die  
                    Kostensicherheit des Systems. Da deegr<font class="orange">ee</font> in Java implementiert
                    ist, ist es plattformunabh&auml;ngig und kann in heterogenen Netzwerken verwendet werden.
                    Installationen sind auf Windows XP/2000/NT, LINUX, Macintosh OS X and Solaris
                    Servers lauff&auml;hig.</p>

                    href="http://www.lat-lon.de/" target="_blank">lat/lon</a>. We would gladly 
                    welcome any <a href="mailto:info -AT- deegree.org">contribution</a> to further 
                    development and implementation.</p>
            
                    <p>The Free Software project deegree offers the
                    substantial building blocks for the building of a Spatial
                    Data Infrastructure by implementing the standards of the
                    Open GIS Consortium (OGC) and ISO/TC 211. As the whole
                    architecture of deegree is based on OGC specifications and
                    concepts, there are no problems to integrate standardized
                    products of other vendors (e.g. ArcIMS by ESRI(c)).</p>
            
                    <p>All of the mentioned server-side services and the client
                    framework are supplied by the Open Source project deegr<font
                    class="orange">ee</font>. deegr<font class="orange">ee</font> 
                    is free software, no license cost have to be provided to use it. 
                    It can be copied and distributed freely, even an extension of 
                    enhancement of the system does not result in license costs. 
                    Openness of the source code underlines investment security of 
                    the system. As deegr<font class="orange">ee</font> is implemented
                    in Java it is platform-independent and can be utilized in
                    heterogeneous networks. Installations are already running on
                    Windows XP/2000/NT, LINUX, Macintosh OS X and Solaris
                    Servers.</p>
            
                    <p>deegr<font class="orange">ee</font> is free in the sense that it is
