2 PGIS Fondazione Edmund Mach, Trento Gridded Meteo data (PAT ACE-SAP, FEM Isotopi) Eco-Health (EDEN FP6, PAT RISKTIGER, EDENext FP7,...) Landscape Genetics (PAT ACE-SAP) OGC Web Services (with ZOO project) Research Topics GIS and Remote Sensing Unit (PGIS) Grape maturation (FEM) future SensorWeb and GIS New GIS methods (with OSGeo) New Remote Sensing methods ongoing Trento

3 GRASS: a portable GIS GRASS 6-6/2011 MacOSX MS-Windows GNU/Linu x

4 DE JA PL New GRASS GIS User interface

5 From GeoTIFF or SHAPE or... Now directly Imported then. GRASS: Project database (Location) wizard

6 GRASS GIS: Interoperability LAS

7 Extra bonus: export to Python scripts GRASS: New Geospatial Modeller

8 Raster and 3D vector Trento, Italy Optional: KML export for virtual globes Elevation model combined with extruded 3D buildings; also true 3D vector supported

9 GRASS Topological 2D/3D Vector model Vector geometry types g Se m t en Node Vertex Area Node Boundary u Bo ar nd Boundary Centroid Vertex Centroid y Face s Vertex Node Use of Spatial Index Vertex Vertex Vertex S eg me t n nt e m Vertex Vertex Geometry is true 3D when: x, y, z g Se not in all GIS! Point Centroid Line Boundary Area (boundary + centroid) face (3D area) [kernel (3D centroid)] [volumes (faces + kernel)] Node Line

10 GRASS Topological Vector Digitizer

11 GRASS Addons: User contributed extensions The Addons repository is SVN based: User can easily obtain write access to develop new functionality Installation with extension manager Increasing inflow of Python scripts

12 in GRASS GIS Support for massive spatial datasets

13 GRASS 7 raster processing Standard nearest neighbour, linear, cubic, lanczos Spline based Regularized Spline Tension (RST), bspline Statistical average, median, mode, min, max, sum, variance, stddev, quantile Filtering window Bartlett, gauss, hermite, sinc, lanczos1, lanczos2, lanczos3, hann, hamming, blackman and any combination thereof Raster resampling

14 GRASS 7 raster processing Inverse Distance Weighing (IDW) Regularized Spline Tension (RST) Bspline (Tykhonov regularization) Ordinary kriging Filtering window Raster surface interpolation from raster or vector points

15 Processing of LiDAR data: laser scanning of the terrain Lidar First pulse Last pulse Digital Situation Model (DSM) Digital Terrain Model (DTM) Processing 500 Million points... M. Brovelli and R. Antolín H. Mitasova

16 Processing of LiDAR data: laser scanning of the terrain Output as vector points: Output as raster map: v.in.lidar r.in.lidar Lidar First pulse Last pulse Digital Surface Model (DSM) Digital Terrain Model (DTM) New in GRASS 7: direct import of LiDAR LAS files

17 Lidar data analysis in GRASS GIS Available Methods: - cell based statistics - binning - spatial approximation - smoothing Use cases: - topographic analysis - Feature extraction (Separation DEM/DSM) H. Mitasova, NCSU M. Brovelli, PdM, Como Multi-return Lidar data

18 Lidar based DTM/DSM with orthophoto draped over it (GRASS: r.sun JRC) and NVIZ) N Lidar data in action: Visualization and solar energy

19 GRASS 7: Support for massive datasets Massive is relative to Hardware resources Software capabilities Operating system capabilities Limiting factors RAM Processing time Disk space Largest supported file size What is massive?
