According to https://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/SoCProjects, this was Howard Butler. I'm CC'ing him so he can provide some input. I found this old message from Petr ( http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/gdal- dev/2008-August/018032.html ) which could suggest that the GUI developement was started at the time of GSoc (18 august 2008). Looking at history in http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/log/trunk/gdal/swig/python/scripts/gdal2tiles.py , it seems to confirm Howard was the mentor. Interestingly commit http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/changeset/15638/trunk/gdal/swig/python/scripts/gdal2tiles.py that was the update from the version of GSoc 2007 with the version of GSoc 2008 make appear references to maptiler.org and also support from BRGM. So it is not really clear which funding supported the development of the GUI...

Just in the .deb ;-) Installed in ./usr/lib/maptiler/maptiler/gdal2tiles.py Also here : https://github.com/calvinchengx/maptiler/blob/master/maptiler/gdal2tiles.py (unfortunately there's no history as this was a single shot import...) -- Spatialys - Geospatial professional services http://www.spatialys.com _______________________________________________ Live-demo mailing list Live-demo@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/live-demo http://live.osgeo.org http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Live_GIS_Disc
