I am not > familiar with it myself. I've tried using Grass a few times. It's kind of for computer hobbiests, not people who want a program that's simple to use. But, then, pretty much every GIS program is like that. For actual work it's going to take a lot more time than a program with a good interface would. It's written by those folks who are way, way, way behind in writing usable interfaces. A type of luddite. We really need a good GIS program for the rest of us. People who have something else we need to do than mess with computers. I keep looking. Walt |
