  <dc:title>Interface Between 'GRASS' Geographical Information System and
'R'</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package rgrass version 0.5-3</dc:title>
  <dc:subject>CRAN Task View: Spatial (https://CRAN.R-project.org/view=Spatial)</dc:subject>
  <dc:description>An interface between the 'GRASS' geographical information system ('GIS') and 'R', based on starting 'R' from within the 'GRASS' 'GIS' environment, or running a free-standing 'R' session in a temporary 'GRASS' location; the package provides facilities for using all 'GRASS' commands from the 'R' command line. The original interface package for 'GRASS 5' (2000-2010) is described in Bivand (2000) &lt;doi:10.1016/S0098-3004(00)00057-1&gt; and Bivand (2001) &lt;https://www.r-project.org/conferences/DSC-2001/Proceedings/Bivand.pdf&gt;. This was succeeded by 'spgrass6' for 'GRASS 6' (2006-2016) and 'rgrass7' for 'GRASS 7' (2015-present). The 'rgrass' package modernizes the interface for 'GRASS 8' while still permitting the use of 'GRASS 7'.</dc:description>
