GRASS GIS 7.8.7 Reference Manual
       Geographic  Resources  Analysis Support System, commonly referred to as
       GRASS GIS, is a Geographic Information System (GIS) used for geospatial
       data  management  and analysis, image processing, graphics/maps produc-
       tion, spatial modeling, and visualization. GRASS is currently  used  in
       academic  and  commercial settings around the world, as well as by many
       governmental agencies and environmental consulting companies.

       This reference manual details the use of modules distributed with  Geo-
       graphic  Resources Analysis Support System (GRASS), an open source (GNU
       GPLed), image processing and geographic information system  (GIS).   Go
