+GRASS GIS can be run entirely without using the graphical user interface. For a first time startup, the following steps have to be followed:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+<ol>
|
|
|
+ <li> Create a GRASS database as explained above.</li>
|
|
|
+ <li>Create a new location, including it's default PERMANENT mapset, without entering the new location:</li>
|
|
|
+ <ul>
|
|
|
+ <li>Using an EPSG code: <tt>grass70 -e -c EPSG:32630 /home/myuser/GRASSDATA/mylocation</tt></li>

|

|

|
|
|
