GRASS GIS is a powerful geoprocessing engine that offers a robust and mature toolset for diverse applications. The core distribution brings together more than 500 tools for spatial and temporal analysis of vector, raster, 3D raster and imagery data. GRASS was developed for speed and efficiency, which allows it to scale workflows with massive datasets rather simply. At the same time, R excels at statistical analysis, modeling and data visualization. The spatial community within R has indeed grown significantly in the last decade, with the rise of packages like sf, stars, gdalcubes, terra, mapview, tmap, among many others. The beauty of open source software is that we do not need to reinvent the wheel each time. Instead, we can join forces to build bridges that connect our individual strengths. In this talk, I’ll stand over the shoulders of giants, to demonstrate how the combination of GRASS GIS and R through the rgrass package can help us integrate and streamline our spatial data engineering and data science workflows for scientific and operational applications.
