 A LOCATION is simply a set of directories which contains the GRASS
 data of a project. Within each LOCATION, a mandatory "PERMANENT"
 MAPSET exists which contains projection information and some more
 definitions. It can be used to store the base cartography in it as
 "PERMANENT" is visible to all users accessing a LOCATION.
