Abstract

The Geographic Resources Analysis, GRASS, a general purpose GIS originally developed by U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Laboratory, has grown into one of the main components of Open Source and Free Software geospatial compuational infrastructure. Current developments led by international team of programmers, focus on improving the 2D and 3D raster and vector data processing and analysis tools and 3D visualization capabilities in the wake of publishing of the code under GPL in 1999. Applications in the area of epidemiology, coastal management and water flow modelling provide a snapshot of the capabilities
