<div dir="ltr">Hi Margherita,<br><br>I really appreciate for your feedback! I'm not much familiar with GRASS GIS as I had only developed standalone codes in Python using directly libraries like GDAL and <a href="http://rioshome.org">RIOS</a> and used QGIS for layers visualization. But, as I observed <a href="http://grass.osgeo.org/programming6/pythonlib.html">here</a> and <a href="https://grasswiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GRASS_and_Python">here</a>, Python scripts can easily be integrated within GRASS GIS and I could seamlessly adapt my programming skills to work with that. That way, I could compromise myself in integrating my already done codes (and new ones) into GRASS GIS software/libraries.<br><br>Also, if allowed, I could edit the Ideas' wiki page to contemplate my own idea, so that it could be visible to a broader audience. If I get a mentor in time, I will make a detailed proposal for the mentors/community be able to understand better the idea.<br><br>Thank you very much,<br style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:12.8px;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;background-color:rgb(255,255,255)"><br style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:12.8px;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;background-color:rgb(255,255,255)"><span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:12.8px;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);float:none;display:inline">Evandro Carrijo Taquary</span><br style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:12.8px;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;background-color:rgb(255,255,255)"><span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:12.8px;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);float:none;display:inline">Federal University of Goiás</span><br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">2018-03-22 14:08 GMT-03:00 Margherita Di Leo <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:diregola@gmail.com" target="_blank">diregola@gmail.com</a>></span>:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Hi Evandro,<div><br></div><div>thank you for your proposal, I put in cc also the GRASS GIS dev mailing list, as it might be a suitable project candidate if anyone is available for mentoring it. It is usually a bit more difficult to find mentors when the proposal comes from a student and it is not listed in our ideas page, however not impossible, and your idea sounds very interesting. Are you familiar with GRASS GIS?</div><div>I'd like to point you out our recommendations for students at <a href="https://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php?title=Google_Summer_of_Code_Recommendations_for_Students" target="_blank">https://wiki.osgeo.org/<wbr>index.php?title=Google_Summer_<wbr>of_Code_Recommendations_for_<wbr>Students</a> , particularly our guidelines on how to submit a proposal.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div><div class="h5">On Thu, Mar 22, 2018 at 5:49 PM, Evandro Carrijo <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:evandro.taquary@gmail.com" target="_blank">evandro.taquary@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br></div></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div><div class="h5"><div dir="ltr"><div style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:12.8px;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;background-color:rgb(255,255,255)">Hello there!</div><div style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:12.8px;font-style:normal;f
