I have put written a database, gdbase, for use with GRASS that could be
helpful and it is free.  It's main purpose is to reclass maps (raster,
vector or sites) based on logical queries to database files.  It
requires the public domain version of awk: gawk.

It is available by anonymous ftp at
ohlone.ced.berkeleye.edu:/pub/grass/gdbase.tar.Z

That includes an extensive readme file on query syntax and database
formatting.  If you have any questions you can write me directly,
sue at ced.berkeley.edu
