Open Source Software for Environmental Statistics
Open Source
This project tries to maintain an overview of software relevant for environmental statistics. It will cover GIS, geostatistics, spatial statistics, space-time models, and time series techniques. Emphasis will be on the R system and its extensions and on the Open Source GRASS GIS and its extensions.
Open source software is software for which the source code for the program or library is available at no cost and can be
compiled and modified by anyone. In general, the Center supports the use of free software.
Neither of the two concepts implies that it is inappropriate to sell either the software, or the applications based on the software, for money.
