[GRASS-dev] [SoC] GSoC 2021 - Parallelization of raster modules for GRASS GIS

[Moritz Lennert]

Hi Aaron,

I haven't had the chance to test all this, yet, but it's great work ! One suggestion:

I don't know what you plan on including in this wiki page, but if there is some sort of boiler plate code that could be used for parallelization of other modules, it would be great to have that somewhere, with detailed comments about each part does and what potential issues are.
