GRASS based OGC Web Processing Service (WPS) standard implementations

Inside GRASS 7

In GRASS7, the WPS process description can be automatically generated with the option '--wps-process-description'. See announcement.

Example: r.grow --wps-process-description

Linking to other software

There are currently several WPS implementations which use GRASS as GIS backbone:
