GRASS is a multipurpose GIS software, it support vector and raster data format. In GRASS, raster data can be stored as a 2D integer grid, 2D floating point grid (single or double precision), or a 3D floating point grid (single or double precision). To display a raster map into 'Map Display' window, first we have to click on 'Add raster layer' button under pulldown menu on 'GRASS GIS Manager'

One of main different between GRASS and others GIS software is on its geodata management. Other GIS software allow us to store the geodata in any file directory of our computer, and we can also rename, copy, remove or erase the data using file manager. GRASS in the other hand, require us to store it under certain directory called DATABASE or GISDBASE. This directory has to be created with a file

Various network analysis modules are available on GRASS because GRASS is a topological GIS which has been supplemented by DGLib (Directed Graph Library). In this post will be shown one of the module, Subnets within a vector network (v.net.alloc), to calculate subnetworks within a given vector network. This calculation is useful to determine the scope (catchment area) of several Point of Interest

Import map from different file format is another important way for data input. It is quite easy nowadays, to get digital format GIS data wheter it is free or not. But usualy those data is saved in another GIS software format, like ESRI shapefile (Arcview, ArcGIS) or Mapinfo-file. GRASS GIS suport various vector format from various GIS software to be imported to GRASS GIS database. Several module

One of the most popular way to input geographic data into our GIS works is by digitizing map or satellite image. There is two different method to digitize them, we can use digitizer table to digitize hard copy map, or we can scan that map and digitize that scanned map on our monitor. In this post, I will show how to digitize scanned map especially to create a point and line map.The module to

I am using GRASS GIS under Linux for more than one year. I have difficulty to promote this software to my friends because they are not willing to use Linux. I've been planning to install this software on window for a long time, but only this week I could install it. Last week I've tried to install GRASS GIS using Cygwin (UNIX emulation) but I didn't succeed. This time, regardless of missing

I modify that tutorial into this simple step by step and also add with video tutorial.1.Use the text tool to add some text, place/move to suitable position.2.Merge down the text with the background (Layer → Merge Down)3.Invert the color of the text (Colors → Invert)4.

I saw Tokyo Tower for the first time when we (participants of JICA training) visited Minister of Environment office on September 19th 2008. The top of Tokyo Tower was so clear from DG of NCB's office at 18th floor of that building. From that moment I was determined to visit Tokyo Tower while I stay in Japan. But I don't want to go there all by myself, I don't like to go around somewhere alone,

One of important component in ‘Biodiversity Information System’ is GIS. The main reason why GIS is so important on BIS is ‘Habitat’. When we talk about wildlife, it’s almost impossible to ignore the discussion about their habitat on earth surface. Habitat analysis of wildlife, whether it is as small as fish pond or a home range of migratory raptor across continent, is a spatial analysis and that

In order to import scanned raster maps to be later georeferenced two project regions need to be defined. The scanned maps are first imported in a XY location (without projection) and afterwards "equalized" (geocoded) in a second location with a defined coordinate system.Preparation for georeferencingThe desired projection of the target location is to be defined before starting the equalization
