GRASS/R Interface
This section covers how to first download and then install the necessary frameworks and packages for the GRASS/R interface.
Frameworks
Installing these frameworks involves double-clicking the .mpkg file in the disk image and following the on-screen instructions. These frameworks were installed in the order they appear from top to bottom.
Packages
- rgdal
- Once the zip file has been downloaded, open R Preferences
- Go to the Startup Pane and select Add ~/Library/R... under Default Library Paths
- Under the Packages & Data menu, open the Packages Installer
- Select At User Level at the bottom of the window as well as install dependencies on the bottom right hand corner
- Select Get List and choose your mirror site
- Scroll down the page, find the package sp, and download/install it
- Go back up to the drop down menu under Packages Repository and select Local Source Package
- Select Install All, find the folder where you saved your downloaded file
- Select the .tgz file and hit open
- The package should run a script in R and will be installed once that is done
- spgrass6
- Open R
- Run the command:
- install.packages("spgrass6", type="source", dependencies=TRUE)
- The packaged should run a script in R and will be installed once that is done
R can now be run within OpenOSX Grass by typing R in the terminal once Grass is open.
QGIS/GRASS Plugin
- In order to import/load and manipulate data with QGIS, the GRASS Plugin needs to be installed
- This can be done by opening QGIS and looking under the Plugins menu
- Select Manage Plugins
