Software
- Slope unit delineation toolset: a GRASS GIS raster module r.slopeunits, now including an optimization tool, previously unreleased. The full toolset is now listed as an official GRASS GIS addon; the software can be easily installed using the g.extension tool.
- Tool to obtain gridded & polygonal geodiversity: a GRASS GIS module r.geodiversity, a versatile implementation of the multi-scale approach approach developed within the project URGERE. Public download not yet available (paper under review); contact us for a preview of the software.
