Tiled Map Editor - http://www.mapeditor.org/
Tiled is a general purpose tile map editor. It is meant to be used for editing maps of any tile-based game, be it an RPG, a platformer or a Breakout clone.
Tiled is very flexible, for example there are no restrictions on map size, tile size or the number of layers or tiles. Also, it allows arbitrary properties to be set on the map, its layers, the tiles or on the objects. Its map format (TMX) is relatively easy to understand and allows a map to use multiple tilesets while also allowing each tileset to grow or shrink as necessary later.
Tiled was originally written in Java. In 2008 the Qt version was started with the goal to replace the Java version with a faster, better looking and even easier to use map editor. Qt offered many opportunities to improve the performance and usability of the user interface, and has a more extensive feature set than the standard Java libraries.
