How do I report a bug or request a new feature?

Suggestions, comments, and bug reports can be sent to [mailto:beiko@cs.dal.ca?Subject=GenGIS bug/feature request Rob Beiko]. If reporting a bug, please provide as much information as possible and a simplified version of the data set which causes the bug. This will allow us to quickly resolve the issue.


Is there a list of known bugs or platform-specific problems?

A list of known issues can be found here.


Where can I go to find map data?

We recommend http://kiwi.cs.dal.ca/GenGIS/Data_sources as a starting point to find digital map data. There are many other sources online, and the addition of vector data support in version 2.1 means that a much wider range of datasets can be imported into GenGIS. Please <a href="mailto:beiko@cs.dal.ca?Subject=GenGIS question"> contact us</a> if you have questions about finding or using maps in GenGIS.
