libgis is only a small part of GRASS. It includes core functions which
are used by many modules, as well as the interface for reading and
writing raster maps (vector maps are handled by separate libraries). 

It doesn't include any analytic functions; analysis is implemented in
the individual modules.

For information on what is included in the main libraries, refer to
the Programmer's Manual:
