Hi Casey,

You can take a look at

Using GRASS GIS"

"Development of Visualization Tools for Geologic Information on Grass 
GIS" is available at
http://wgrass.media.osaka-cu.ac.jp/gisideas06/viewpaper.php?id=170

The corresponding author of the above paper are preparing to publish a 
detailed paper on the above work and will release to the GRASS 
community. Not sure how soon.
