[GRASS-user] AdvancedViewshedAnalysis

[Benjamin Ducke]

Hi Becky,

The installation manual:

  ftp://88.208.250.116/gvSIG_OADE_Installation.pdf

has some details about setting up the software on the Mac.
See section "4":
If you have ticked the "GRASS GIS" option in the installer,
then the folder you need to specify is within the App folder
of gvSIG OADE 2010 on your Mac: "Contents/Resources/grass".

If you are using a Mac, you should definitely read through
the Mac specific section of the PDF manual above and
also the Mac section on the support page here:

  http://www.oadigital.net/software/gvsigoade/gvsigbugs

This version of gvSIG has been developed to run on Mac OS X
Snow Leopard and Intel hardware. Anything older than that
will probably require some extra fiddling to make it work.

Best,

Ben
