Welcome to INTViewer for Plugin Developers

Welcome to the INTViewer Java Plugin Development Site. This site provides information to all developers on how to extend INTViewer using the INTViewer API and the NetBeans platform. Use support@int.com for questions.

A Python API can be used to execute scripts. This Python API is documented in a separate site, accessible from the following address: https://sites.google.com/a/geotoolkit.net/intviewerpython/
