From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I’d bail on ArcGIS. It’s expensive and QGIS does everything you could possibly need to do without the price tag, or the windows dependency. If you know ArcGIS, Q will feel very familiar.
Do you have links for alternative resources for data, overlays etc? And does all the coding stuff work similarly?
Yes I hate this seminar. Its basically Microsoft/ArcGis advertising, so horrible
They have plug-ins for web tiles, and you can connect to the ArcGIS map services. It has a terminal, but I don’t use that function much. I generally do all data manipulation and prep using Python and postGIS, and use Q as a visualization and editing tool. But it has plugins for just about everything. Most of the data resources ESRI gives you is repackaged public data, so searching the internet will provide you with most of the layers you might need.
Esri is such a piece of shit. The same as Komoot, but corporate. How can they make so much money by reusing loosely licensed FOSS stuff?
I dont know, I think these projects made a big mistake using so loose licenses
Does it connect to the same arcgis BIM servers so I can work with my coworkers, in real architecture projects?
I don’t work in the architecture space, but a quick search gave me some guidance on how to integrate BIM models in QGIS. The 3D City Builder plug in might do what you need.
Mm, not quite, when say having 60+staff work in a single building model you need something that allows object locking so stag can work on part of a building and check it in and out.
I'm not the architect, I'm the sysadmin that designs and builds the server/network infrastructure for a half dozen architecture firms, some which have over 300 architects spread around Australia, Europe, and south East Asia. That mostly means running up servers to host BIM and BIM cache servers, as well as maintaining PIM servers.
To be honest I quizzed you because I honestly never heard of it and my life revolves around both revit and bim360, revit and revit self hosted bim servers, or archicad. Not that I do anything much in them, BIM managers generally administrate their own BIM instances and their teams. But some of the projects are in the billions of dollars that you'll find on featured on the b1m YouTube channel.
Id argue that while the architects themselves are by and far the largest cost, the largest IT cost is the modelling software. I've even had some people using unreal engine to do parts of their work now especially for customer facing flythrough demonstrations and city view with time of day and all that.
So I'm pretty open minded to keeping my ears open to new software since I'm never sure what to expect. It would be interesting to see if it could ever be possible to do one of these megaprojects in open source. But my gut says it's unlikely.
