[GRASS-user] GRASS project movement

Dear list,

I have a question in terms of GRASS project movement. I would like to archive GRASS projects so that I can still use it but hence it does not take needed space.

So if I package the complete GRASS GIS data directory does it also take the total information including projection, coordinate system… or do I have to start with a new project? (I did not use GRASS for a long time, so…)

I look forward to hear from you.

Regards

Chris

You may want to package per location. Locations are independent from
each other (so just put each location directory in a different package).

Perhaps useful to raise the particular status of db data : if you use
dbf driver, the directory will be saved, but if you have an external db
connection, beware of data loss...
