Tegula

Tegula is an interactive desktop application for exploring periodic tilings of the three two-dimensional geometries: the sphere, the euclidean plane and the hyperbolic plane. Tilings are represented by Delaney–Dress symbols, which lets them be enumerated, stored in databases and browsed by the million.
