Community based software development: The GRASS GIS project
GRASS is a Geographic Information System (GIS) used for geospatial
data management and analysis, spatial modeling, and visualization. The
project has an outstanding history as it was originally started a
military project, but in the public domain. With the advent of
Internet and related network based development tools a community was
formed. Nowadays, both users and developers are spread over the globe
and manage to develop this software with low administrational overhead
and a good communication culture. The seminar reviews the technical
and social aspects of this Free GIS project.
