GRASS, Geographic Resources Analysis Support System. Being already familiar with existing open source geospatial projects and the community development approach, Autodesk sought to work cooperatively with these projects rather than release their product as a competitor. As the web emerged, projects such as . ENVI is a Neteler, Markus & Helena Mitasova 2008: Open Source GIS: A GRASS GIS Approach. KGeography, Learning Geography or GIS.

One approach You will likely find that many if not all of your GIS business requirements can be accomplished by using free open-source GIS software such as the GRASS/Quantum GIS combination, and any remaining tasks covered with your preferred commercial GIS product.

This approach can easily be implemented on any scale using a selection of tools provided by GRASS GIS, one of the most powerful Open Source GIS platforms. In particular, projects such as the GRASS geographical information system (GIS) workstation product have aided analysts and researchers in the advanced analysis of geography. It's used across the statistical spectrum to fit smoothed boundaries to observed data (with a parameter you decide arbitrarily, or solve using a few different approaches).
