[GRASS-dev] online GRASS GIS DB

[chris carleton]

Hi all,

I appreciate the time anyone takes to respond to this one. I want to create an online GIS database from which users can access, download, analyze, and submit (after review) spatial data. I would like to use GRASS and a Unix based server for all of this. Ideally, there would just be a webpage with a username password requirement rather than distributing an anonymous account to interested parties (so that folks really only have access to the GIS database and nothing else on the server - also much more user friendly for non-unix users). I've never created a database that is accessible from a website (and never a relational geo-spatial database). Am I going to be able to use GRASS in this way and can anyone provide me with some references to get started or perhaps a currently operational example that is using GRASS? Essentially, what do I need to know and how do I get GRASS to work with a database online - just a readling list or some websites to get me started would be apprecitated as my googling hasn't been particularly fruitfull thus far. Thanks again,

Chris
