<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>

The <b>Data Catalog</b> is a <em><a href="wxGUI.html">wxGUI</a></em> component

  <li>browse GRASS locations and mapsets in the current GIS directory</li>
  <li>browse GRASS 2D/3D raster and vector maps</li>
  <li>rename, copy, move and delete GRASS maps including reprojection between different locations</li>
  <li>drag and drop maps for copying and moving</li>
  <li>searching and fitering maps using regular expressions</li>
  <li>display map in current location</li>
  <li>show metadata of maps</li>
</ul>

<h2>NOTES</h2>

Some operations (copying, renaming, deleting) are by default enabled only within the current mapset.
To allow changing data outside of your current mapset, you need to press <em>Unlock</em> button in Data Catalog toolbar.

<h3>WARNING</h3>
When renaming, copying or deleting maps outside of Data Catalog, you need to reload
the current mapset or entire database, because it is currently not synchronised.
