Free grass gis 6.4rc5 3 software for mac

GRASS GIS 6.4rc5 is stand for Geographic Resources Analysis Support System, which used for data management, image processing, graphics production, spatial modelling, and visualization of many types of data. It is Free (Libre) Software/Open Source released under GNU General Public License (GPL). GRASS is official project of the Open Source Geospatial Foundation.
Originally developed by the U.S. Army Construction Engineering Research Laboratories (USA-CERL, 1982-1995), a branch of the US Army Corp of Engineers, as a tool for land management and environmental planning by the military, GRASS has evolved into a powerful utility with a wide range of applications in many different areas of scientific research. GRASS is currently used in academic and commercial settings around the world, as well as many governmental agencies including NASA, NOAA, USDA, DLR, CSIRO, the National Park Service, the U.S. Census Bureau, USGS, and many environmental consulting companies.
The new GRASS 6 release introduces a new topological 2D/3D vector engine and support for vector network analysis. Attributes are now managed in a SQL-based DBMS. A new display manager has been implemented. The NVIZ visualization tool was enhanced to display 3D vector data and voxel volumes. Messages are partially translated (i18N) with support for FreeType fonts, including multibyte Asian characters. New LOCATIONs can be auto-generated by EPSG code number. GRASS is integrated with GDAL/OGR libraries to support an extensive range of raster and vector formats, including OGC-conformal Simple Features.
The GRASS Development Team has grown into a multi-national team consisting of developers at numerous locations.
In September 2006, the GRASS Project Steering Commitee was formed which is responsible for the overall management of the project. The PSC is especially responsible for granting SVN write access.
Major Features:

1. GRASS (Geographic Resources Analysis Support System) is a raster/vector GIS, image processing system, and graphics production system.
2. GRASS contains over 350 programs and tools to render maps and images on monitor and paper; manipulate raster, vector, and sites data; process multi spectral image data; and create, manage, and store spatial data.
3. GRASS uses both an intuitive windows interface as well as command line syntax for ease of operations.
4. GRASS can interface with commercial printers, plotters, digitizers, and databases to develop new data as well as manage existing data.
   
5. GRASS supports workgroups through its LOCATION/MAPSET concept which can be set up to share data over NFS (Network File System). Keeping LOCATIONs with their underlying MAPSETs on a central server, a team can simultaneously work in the same project database.
   
6. GRASS is released under GNU GPL, the source code (5.x: more than 1 million lines of C; 6.x 500k SLOC) is completely available.
7. GRASS provides a sophisticated GIS library which can be used for own developments.

OpenOSX Grass is a program that will make a "grass" folder in your home directory if it does not exist and will also create a tutorial, "spearfish" dataset in your "grass" folder.
It is recommend that you create your datasets in the "grass" folder (you can always link other directories there by making an "alias" or "symbolic link"), because "OpenOSX Grass" will try to change to that directory by default (this can be customized - however), thereby selecting the database to use for you.
Our all-new "OpenOSX GrassPro" product doesnt just include the latest version of the GRASS GIS software, it delivers the software as a standalone application that requires only a simple drag-and-drop to install.
Not only is this the best version of "OpenOSX Grass" ever developed (requiring zero installation if you have already installed Apples X11), weve added a host of ready-to-use GIS software and utilities to extend the functionality of GRASS, including MapServer for:
- publishing dynamic, navigable maps with layers over the Internet;
- Generic Mapping Tools (GMT): a collection of more than 60 tools for manipulation of geo-spatial data;
- more than a dozen BLM command-line utilities and much more!
- NVIZ support for 3D vector data & voxel volumes.

rmtrash is a small program to move the file/folder you choose to OS Xs Trash rather than obliterating the file, as rm does. This is useful in case you decide you want the file after all.

It allows you to specify a user if you wish to move the file to another users Trash. Most useful when using sudo, so that it isnt moved to roots Trash, though you may run into problems deleting the file if you dont have permission to do so.

To install, either use sudo ./installer from this directory, or copy the rmtrash program file to where you wish, and the man page if you wish to install that, as well.

You can customize the install path with the installer by giving it the path you wish to install as an argument. E.g. sudo ./installer /usr will install it to /usr rather than to /usr/local (the default).

MediaSizer is a small utility that computes the actual size of any number of files or folders on any media. It is very useful for creating CD-ROMs and other write-once disks that have large allocation block sizes.

The allocation block size is the minimum space taken up by any file that is written to a disk; the larger the disk, the larger the allocation block size.

With MediaSizer you can calculate the actual size of files on a different disk.

DeKstasy is for all levels of DJs, but specifically targeted at pros and amateurs performing live. Dont be fooled by the fact that this is free software.

This product was conceived and created primarily for live performances. Using your existing mixer and output hardware (or the standard onboard Macintosh output), the software replaces the functionality of your turntables and records with a slick interface and MP3 files.
