Because there has been no updates or maintenance to the WikiDot platform in quite a few years, I decided it would be better to migrate the GRASS for Mac site to a new platform based on GitHub Pages. You can find it at https://cmbarton.github.io/grass-mac It is virtually identical to the current site but will be easier to maintain in the future. The forums are now replaced by a posts with comments. I think that you will need a (free) GitHub account to comment, but it should also be easier for more people to communicate without applying for membership to a site like this one.

I will leave this site up for awhile but will not update it. I'll eventually take it down.

I just now compiled and posted new binaries for GRASS 7.8.8 and GRASS 8.4 development version. This will be the last of the GRASS 7 series. GRASS continues to evolve rapidly toward 8.4

GRASS 8.3.0 has just been released. I've posted binary apps for both the new Apple ARM and older Intel processors.

Enjoy

I just today updated these binaries with a fix for g.extension that enables installing GRASS addons.

I've just posted new binaries supporting Apple ARM processors (M1 and M2 currently) for GRASS 8.3 and 8.2.1. I also posted a new Intel binary for GRASS 8.3. The Intel binaries also work on Apple ARM processor Macs using its "Rosetta" emulation engine.

GRASS 7.8.8 release candidate 3 was posted last month
GRASS 8.2.1 release candidate was posted today

Enjoy!

Hi, I am experiencing problem with georeferencing scanned maps. After setting GCPs in XY location I can't reproject the data into coordinate location because system message appears saying "Please select a valid location and mapset to continue" as on attached screenshot.

I would attach a screenshot, but the system doesn't allow me to do so.

I am using macOS Monterey 12.4 and Grass 8.2.0, but I get this error also with Grass 8.0.2 and 7.8.6

Clicking on "download" in
GRASS 8.2.0 6 Jun 2022 download
results in error "403. That’s an error. We're sorry, but you do not have access to this page. That’s all we know."

Download of 8.0.2 works normally.

GRASS 8.2 was released a few days ago. I just now posted new binaries.

I just posted new development versions (release candidates) for GRASS 8.2.0 RC2 and 7.8.8 RC1. Please download and test.

I also did a little bit of updating and reorganization of the site to make downloads easier.

Announcing a new series of publicly available YouTube video tutorials for GRASS 8. These tutorials, originally created for a GIS course at San Diego State University titled “ANTH 562 Computational Archaeology”, are aimed to help novice to advanced GIS practioners learn how to use GRASS GIS. The subject matter is nominally archaeological GIS, but all the basics of GRASS are covered, as well as some advanced topics, such as Least Cost Analysis, Visibility Analysis, Hydrological Modeling, Terrain Analysis, and more. The sample data used in the tutorials is available in this GitHub repository.

The tutorials will be added to this YouTube playlist.

See announcement at: https://grass.osgeo.org/news/2022_03_22_new_video_tutorials_for_grass_8/

The GRASS team just released v. 8.0.2. This is a maintenance release but has a number of fixes and updates. You can read about them at: https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/releases/tag/8.0.2

GRASS 8.0.0 was released at the end of January. It's taken me a couple weeks to get it compiled. It has a significantly updated interface for selecting maps-from a data catalog environment that lets you choose all map types and easily switch between locations and mapsets.

Also numerous new features and bug fixes. Read about it at https://grass.osgeo.org/news/2022_01_30_grass_gis_8_0_0_released/ and at https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/releases/tag/8.0.0

GRASS 8 is here! by cmbarton54cmbarton54, 14 Feb 2022 21:46

Happy New Year to GRASS users.

In 2022, GRASS is moving to create a new stable release of version 8. This is a major update to GRASS, involving its GUI interface and underlying modules. Keep in mind that a full version update may not be backward compatible with older versions (though this one is backward compatible with most older GRASS functions and commands. I've posted the first formal release candidate.

I also posted a slight update to the version 7.8.6 binary. This binary does not require you to install a separate X11 application (it is not used in GRASS for Mac anyway).

Enjoy

Hi I am trying to run a gapfilling python script from PySEBAL that uses GRASS with the terminal command. I have already installed grass_session with the pip command using Anaconda.

I have tried using the LINUX and Windows environmental variable and run the program
Linux
export GRASS_BIN="/Applications/GRASS-7.8.app/Contents/Resources/bin/grass78

Windows adjusted to the mac
export GRASSBASE="/Applications/GRASS-7.8.app/Contents/Resources/bin/grass78
export GISRC="/Applications/GRASS-7.8.app/Contents/Resources/demolocation/.grassrc78"
export PATH="/Applications/GRASS-7.8.app/Contents/Resources/lib:/Applications/GRASS-7.8.app/Contents/Resources/bin:/Applications/GRASS-7.8.app/Contents/Resources/scripts"

However, when I run the script, it can't find grass_session because there is no link between Anaconda and GRASS.

Any help someone can provide would greatly be appreciated since I have spent a couple of days going no where. Thanks.

Kind Regards,

Shaffiq

I forgot to post here that I posted binaries for the new GRASS 7.8.6 stable and 8.0 development version a few weeks ago (21 October 2021). Take them for a spin.

I just compiled and uploaded new binaries for the upcoming GRASS stable version (7.8.6 release candidate 2) and the tech preview for the next generation GRASS (v. 8). Enjoy!
