OpenDCS is a set of services and applications for creating custom data acquisition and control systems in a distributed manner. The target operating system is Linux and its modern distribution variants.
The current public release is a beta release that is a fork of dactl and probably won't be in a usable state until at least the next minor release. The libraries include GIR output for use in other languages, the support of which is still a work in progress.
Instructions for installing OpenDCS and it's dependencies can be read here.
