would also agree with Hermann about starting with QGIS to view your
files and work with them, but as I have recently discovered when setting
up my labs, the plugins for QGIS on Mac have a lot of dependencies that
are not included in the repo version, so follow the instructions here
carefully downloading all the extra packages first

and QGIS interface pretty nicely - I have a couple of QGIS / GRASS labs
on my website that might help get you started (although they are
specifically designed for archaeology students)</span></div><div style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:13.3333px;font-family:verdana, helvetica, sans-serif;background-color:transparent;font-style:normal;"><span><br></span></div><div style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:13.3333px;font-family:verdana, helvetica, sans-serif;background-color:transparent;font-style:normal;"><span>http://www.pushingthesensors.com/teaching-materials/</span></div><div style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:13.3333px;font-family:verdana, helvetica, sans-serif;background-color:transparent;font-style:normal;"><br><span></span></div><div style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:13.3333px;font-family:verdana, helvetica, sans-serif;background-color:transparent;font-style:normal;"><span>Good luck!</span></div><div style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:13.3333px;font-family:verdana, helvetica, sans-serif;background-color:transparent;font-style:normal;"><span>Rebecca</span></div><div
