Hi, I would love to see some tools for corridor mapping and analysis. I came across grass because of its r.profile routine when I had to do deal with a LIDAR survey of a 70 km x 400 m corridor for a path, but I was not able to do much with it.
Here some links to examples of engineering that needs GIS: http://proceedings.esri.com/library/userconf/proc95/to100/p061.html http://proceedings.esri.com/library/userconf/proc05/papers/pap2075.pdf http://www.toposys.com/pdf-ext/Engl/AP_Corridor.pdf Good luck!! -- Marco 2009/11/13 David Townshend <aquavita...@gmail.com>: > Hi all > > I am looking for some advice for a master's thesis.
