GRASS GIS 8.0.0 released
Overview of changes
After more than 3 year of development the first stable release GRASS GIS
8.0.0 is available. Efforts have concentrated on making the user experience
even better, providing many new useful additional functionalities to
modules and further improving the graphical user interface.
Breaking news: new graphical user interface with entirely rewritten startup
sequence!
This re-establishes user experience compatibility with QGIS and other
connected software packages.
The GRASS GIS 8.0.0 release provides more than 1,400 fixes and improvements
with respect to the release 7.8.6.
With the introduction of the semantic label raster metadata class, the
temporal database was modified to version 3. Hence, to be able to read and
process GRASS 7.x space-time datasets, users will be prompted to run
t.upgrade. If users want to read newly created space-time datasets back in
GRASS 7.x, they can run t.downgrade.
Launching the software
The user experience of the graphical user interface has been completely
rewritten: no more clumsy selection screens - just enter the menu system
directly!
And on command line, GRASS GIS now starts versionless, i.e. as grass.
