Almost made the cut for GIS programs on this list, since you can export georeferenced raster data, but in terms of data creation, it just doesn't have enough features, I think, to qualify as a GIS. I may do a list of GIS viewers at some point in the future. I assume you've seen Forestry GIS already (aka fGIS), which was created with the TatukGIS developer's platform. It was being continuously updated and released for free until TatukGIS changed the license terms to make that impossible. The last free version is still available, and you'll recognize many of the TatukGIS viewer's functionality in it, but it also lets you create and manipulate vector data.

There Viewer is about the best, most stable, most user-friendly free and very capable GIS viewer I've tested, and I've tested many. They've also got paid Editor versions and a very strong developer's platform too. TatukGIS should definitely be listed here too.
