- See http://grass.itc.it/grass61/manuals/html61_user/grass6.html or http://grass.itc.it/grass61/manuals/html61_user/helptext.html
- http://grass.itc.it/gdp/grass5tutor/HTML_en/c626.html contains advice on setting up a directory structure for GRASS projects.
It advises:
/data/ # as a shared directory for team projects with sysop managed group permissions
# this shared directory may stay on a network server
/data/grassdata # GRASS GIS database
/data/grassdata/spearfish60 # a shared spearfish Location (think project)
/data/grassdata/spearfish60/maria # a team member's working mapset
/data/grassdata/spearfish60/david # another member's working mapset
For individual use, such a structure is not necessary. One will need a database, and GRASS can create Location and Mapset directories. Your default database/location/mapset may be stored in your .grass6rc file.
GRASS can be invoked with:
grass60 --help # print options grass60 # start with defaults from .grassrc6 grass60 /data/grassdata/spearfish/david # a specific mapset
