This project allows you to run QGIS, a popular open-source Geographic Information System (GIS) software, within a Docker container using noVNC for remote desktop access. It has been created with the intention of being compatible with Onyxia (onyxia.sh), a platform for easily deploying and managing data analysis environments.
QGIS (Quantum GIS) is a user-friendly and powerful open-source desktop GIS application that provides a wide range of tools for working with geographic data. It's used by professionals and enthusiasts alike for tasks such as mapping, spatial analysis, data visualization, and more. Whether you're a geospatial expert or a beginner, QGIS is a versatile and valuable tool for working with geographic information.
