Anyone use G.R.A.S.S?

Recommended Posts

I am trying to convert my workflow and workstation over to running on Linux and want to edit/create Arma 3 terrain using Opensource, Linux software. I came across the tools G.R.A.S.S and QGIS. I am wondering if anyone uses these and can give me a guide on how to use them for Arma 3 terrain.

Geographic Resources Analysis Support System

System (GIS) used for geospatial data management and analysis,

image processing, graphics/map production, spatial modeling, and

visualization. GRASS is currently used in academic and commercial

settings around the world, as well as by many government agencies

and environmental consulting companies.

QGIS

A Geographic Information System (GIS) manages, analyzes, and displays

databases of geographic information. QGIS supports shape file viewing and

editing, spatial data storage with PostgreSQL/PostGIS, projection on-the-fly,

map composition, and a number of other features via a plugin interface. QGIS

also supports display of various georeferenced raster and Digital Elevation
