This release fixes bugs discovered in version 6.4.1 of the > program and adds a number of new features. This release includes over > 760 updates to the source code since 6.4.1. As a stable release > series, the 6.4 line will enjoy long-term support and incremental > enhancements while preserving backwards-compatibility with the entire > GRASS 6 line. > > The new wxPython graphical user interface (wxGUI) has been updated > with many new features and tools. Python is now a fully supported > scripting language, including an updated Python toolkit to simplify > the authoring of personal scripts, support for NumPy based array > calculations, and a Python application interface for the GRASS C > libraries. Additionally, MS-Windows support continues to mature. GRASS > 6.4.2 debuts ten new modules, a new GUI cartographic composer tool, a > new GUI object-oriented modeling environment, and improved > infrastructure for installing community supplied add-on modules. > > Read the full story at > http://grass.osgeo.org/announces/announce_grass642.html > > About GRASS GIS > > The Geographic Resources Analysis Support System, commonly referred to > as GRASS, is an Open Source Geographic Information System (GIS) and > geospatial analysis toolkit. For nearly three decades, GRASS has > provided powerful raster, vector, and geospatial processing engines in > a single integrated software suite. GRASS includes tools for spatial > modeling of raster and vector data, visualization, the management and > analysis of geospatial information, and the processing of satellite > and aerial imagery. It also provides the capability to produce > sophisticated presentation graphics and publication-quality hardcopy > maps. GRASS has now been translated into twenty languages and supports > an extensive array of data formats. It is distributed under the terms > of the GNU General Public License (GPL). > > GRASS differs from many other GIS software packages used in the > academic and professional worlds in that it is developed and > distributed by users for users, mostly on a volunteer basis. Its code > and spatial processing algorithms are open and transparent, and the > software is distributed free of charge. The source code is also freely > available, allowing for immediate customization, examination of the > underlying algorithms, the addition of new features, and faster > identification and patching of bugs. > > _______________________________________________ > Iscriviti all'associazione GFOSS.it: http://www.gfoss.it/drupal/iscrizione > [email protected] > http://lists.gfoss.it/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gfoss > Questa e' una lista di discussione pubblica aperta a tutti. > Non inviate messaggi commerciali. > I messaggi di questa lista non rispecchiano necessariamente > le posizioni dell'Associazione GFOSS.it. > 569 iscritti al 4.1.2012
