| 56 | | GRASS GIS 8.0 graphical user interface comes with an entirely new concept of startup mechanism. Users will no longer find any confusing startup screen in the software. The GRASS GUI data management centerpiece now lies in the enriched Data Catalog, which enables user-friendly management of GRASS data hierarchy elements - databases, locations, and mapsets. To make initial contact easier, all these special terms are clarified in the pre-prepared location launched when the software is run for the first time. Additionally, there also occur some info bars helping with setting a new location up and data import. Thanks to the Data Catalog, the next time GRASS starts users can switch easily from the opened last used mapset to another mapset. This makes working with the software easier for both GIS beginners and existing GRASS users. |
