Abstract

In this chapter, we explain the practical use of GRASS using examples in the area of natural resources. First, we illustrate simple modeling using the Spearfish data set. More complex application is included in the section focused on land use management. To save space, we use the command line mode throughout this chapter; however, the same tasks can be performed by accessing the commands using the TclTk interface or an interactive mode (see Section 3.1.3).
