Open source GIS systems and DEM

Hello. For those of you that use an open source GIS system, I would like to ask you why you chose the one you use. When developing the DEM functionality for mkgmap, is a certain system preferred? I have GRASS installed, but I keep hearing about QGIS. Mark Bradley

Hi Mike, I have never used any GIS system. I just download zipped hgt files from e.g. http://viewfinderpanoramas.org/Coverage%20map%20viewfinderpanoramas_org3.htm unzip them into one dir called srtm3 and feed that to mkgmap.
