Free java grass gis 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.

Zip Java Classes composes a zip archive from Java classes and zip files using the Macintosh ZipIt compress tool. This script has good ability to exclude source files other than the Java classes and zip from the selected files.

Select file(s) and folder(s) of Java classes and drop them onto this droplet icon. Then, all Java class files *.class and *.zip in the folders will be archived into a JavaClasses.zip file. Other files than *.class or *.zip will not be added to the archive.

The Java compiler javac of Apples MRJ 2.0 generates the compiled Java classes in the same folder as their source files. The JBindery application can build a Macintosh Java application by binding the Java classes and zip files in the particular folders. Unfortunately, the JBindery can not exclude other files than Java classes in the folders. It may include source files in it, alas!

Here is the way to compose Java application from the Java classes and zip files only. Let us use the Macintosh ZipIt 1.3.x to archive the Java classes and zip files and compress it. Fortunately, ZipIt is an AppleScriptable application so that we can commit a series of script commands to it and remove other files from the archive.

Clean Java Classes removes Java class files *.class generated by a Java compiler. Select file(s) or folder(s) and drop them on the droplet icon. Then all the class files in the folders and all subfolders will be deleted.
The folders search is done recursively.

If some folder becomes empty with no items in it, then it is also removed. On searching folders, the script also changes the viewby method of each folder to "View by Name".

Java Speech API is a wrapper for vendors to simplify usage of the Java Speech API (JSR 113). Note that the spec is an untested early access and that there may be changes in the API.

Enhancements
- First release of a base layer for sphinx4 and FreeTTS.

Collect Java Classes is a small AppleScript which collects Java classes *.class and *.zip in the folders. Select file(s) and folder(s) and drop them on this droplet icon. Then, all Java class files *.class and *.zip in the folders and subfolders will be collected.

The folders search is done recursively. On searching folders, the script also changes the viewby method of each folder to "View by Name". But if the folder is already viewed by Name, Size, Kind, or Date, then no changes happen.

The collected items are listed in gDocList as a list of aliases. You can give this alias list to open by your particular application.

Java Sudoku is a cross platform version of the popular Sudoku logic game. Java Sudoku features an advanced user interface that is both easy to use and appealing to the eye.
It allows you to generate completely random Sudoku puzzles, enter your own puzzles from newspapers and magazines, or load them from Sudoku XML files. Java Sudoku can also be used as a Sudoku generator and solver.
Main features:
- Random puzzles every time you play
- Helping lines mode in the option menu, so You can see easier, if there is a collision
- 2 different systems of selecting cells and entering numbers
- 3 difficulty levels and an user custom level
- 3 Different Numbers Distributions
- Load/Save Sudoku games without any kind of losses
- Design your own puzzles - Under construction.

Requirements:
Color monitor.

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.
