[GRASS-user] Request for GRASS GIS case studies

Dear all,

since outstanding things are done with GRASS GIS, we should better
showcase the capabilities of this software. I would like to
propose to write up case studies in the Wiki which would, at the
same time, give visibility to you, your company or institution.

Examples:
- PostGIS case studies:
    http://postgis.refractions.net/documentation/casestudies/
- QGIS case studies:
    http://qgis.org/en/community/qgis-case-studies.html

Also non-english case studies are fine! If possible we may translate
them to different languages - the Wiki supports multiple languages.

Random ideas:
- GRASS usage in public administration
- massive data analysis
- attractive visualization
- ... unlimited further ideas :slight_smile:

They should have a CC-ShareAlike or similar license to make it
easy to the press to pick it up and republish elsewhere.

Is there already a wiki place/page where to start? I have noticed an "Applications" page in the wiki:
http://grass.osgeo.org/wiki/Applications

would that be the place?

We have a couple of so-called "open access" papers with GIS analysis performed using GRASS from which it would be easy to draw material under CC-ShareAlike license (they are Creative Commons Attribution CC BY).

Kind regards,

Hi Markus,

I made a first attempt at a GRASS case study based on two open access papers, see
http://grasswiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Case_studies/GlobalChangeBiology

Would you or any other list member let me know if that is any close to what was expected -- or any other suggestion for that matter.

Kind regards,

Luigi

wonderful, thanks for writing it!

I hope more users will write case studies of all kinds of applications and
use cases.

PS: I took liberty to add the DOIs and PDF links

Thanks Markus:
I need to improve my Wiki editing skills.
Ciao,

Hello all:

I’ve recently added a case study to the GRASS wiki concerning population genetics and species habitat modeling.
http://grasswiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Population_Genetics_and_GIS

With help from a colleague, we’ve put together and tried a procedure in GRASS to make predicted migration corridors for a certain insect pest.
Comments welcome!

Best regards,
Micha
