Introduction to GRASS GIS Processing Engine (Boston University 2025)

This is a set of Jupyter Notebooks for workshop for Boston University.

How to run the notebooks

The workshop can be run online in MyBinder and Google Colab. This is a convenient way, since no installation is needed.

MyBinder

Binder

To run the notebook in MyBinder, click the launch button above.

The software and dataset is downloaded and installed into the environment. Other notebooks and files can be accessed through the JupyterLab interface on the left.

Google Colab

Open In Colab

To run the notebook in Google Colab, click the open button above.

In Google Colab, we don't have pre-installed the software needed, so go ahead and execute the first cell to install it. Also, in order to avoid the need to repeat the installation, we merged all notebooks into one long notebook.

Local Setup

Please, don't do a local setup for this short workshop so that we can focus on analysis. However, if you want to explore local setup, it might be advantageous to explore the notebooks for Windows and macOS here. For Linux, the setup should be relatively straightforward even with an virtual environment. Having GRASS GIS on a non-standard path (which is not on system path), will require:

import os
os.environ["PATH"] += ":/path/to/directory/where/grass/executable/is/"
