Hello -
I have a desktop PC with a complete GIS (ArcGIS 9), but will also be getting
a Mac laptop (PowerBook or iBook, not sure which) as part of a new freelance
project. I'd like to take the opportunity to experiment with installing and
using a GIS on a Mac, and am wondering if anyone here has done the same and
what your experiences have been. While I've found this page an especially
helpful resource http://www.gueritte.plus.com/geomax.html , I still have
some questions.
What GIS do you use on your Mac? From looking around online, GRASS *seems*
to be the only complete, fully functional (meaning, beyond map illustration,
beyond simple thematic mapping, but not highly specialized and only for
hyperspectral and multispectral analysis, etc.) GIS that works on a Mac. I
could be completely wrong here, so please tell me if I am.
If you're using a GIS on a Mac, do you use any additional
products/applications for specialized needs or map illustration/finishing
(like Canvas)? Why?
Thanks for any information and experiences you can share. Fortunately, this
is for fun and it's not required that I get a GIS up and working on a Mac.
Stephany
