As a sometime user of ArcGIS, I was wondering if you could recommend a similar freeware program. I don't mean GoogleEarth or anything of that ilk (though photo geotagging is something I was drooling over in 2002 and love to little pieces now), I mean a program that can take the demographic, topological, political, and social datasets that exist and manipulate them on a map. I mean, GoogleEarth and GoogleTransit and stuff rock, but when I need to view the the concentration of poverty in Boston vs. the number of foreclosures in the last year, I can't use them. Thoughts?
