Hi,
I'm new to GRASS and would like to know how I can work with the NASA Blue Marble dataset.

I went to the NASA site http://visibleearth.nasa.gov/view_rec.php?id=2429 but don't know where or how to start. There are some references to using a Bit Torrent client to download a data set.

Q1. How can I obtain the torrent files for downloading the NASA Blue Marble dataset?

Q2. Which file format is the NASA Blue Marble dataset stored in?

Q3. Which grass modules should I use to import the NASA Blue Marble dataset?

Q4. What is the difference between the NASA onearth WMS server ( http://wms.jpl.nasa.gov/ ) and the NASA Blue Marble data set server ( ftp://veftp.gsfc.nasa.gov/bluemarble ) ? Is it the same thing?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,

Elvis Dowson
