This book is mostly based on the longtime experiences of our internal and external employees, of being used as teaching material at the University of Hanover and of the cooperation in the GRASSDevelopment Team. Corresponding to our company philosophy we always endeavor an active contribution for promoting, distributing and advancing Free (GIS)-Software. For this reason, all chapters of this book are published according to the GNU Free Document License and are available on the GDF Hannover bR (9) website.
The topics of our beginners courses are chosen depending on the respective duration as well as on the specific ambitions of the participants. The individual chapters are therefore designed to provide an overview of the basic functions of the GRASS system, and do not refer to any specific examples or contents of GRASS courses of the GDF Hannover bR.
This book is meant to be a compact and clear introduction to GRASS 6.0 and quickly inform the reader about the basic functions of the program. For more insight in the software, see the appropriate book titles of the respective topics indicated in the bibliography.
