GRASS GIS
GRASS GIS (Geographic Resources Analysis Support System) is a free and open-source Geographic Information System (GIS) software suite utilized for geospatial data management and analysis, image processing, graphics and map production, spatial modeling, and visualization. It supports raster, vector, and geospatial processing, enabling advanced modeling, data management, imagery processing, and time series analysis with a Python API, optimized for large-scale analysis. GRASS GIS is compatible with multiple operating systems, including OS X, Windows, and Linux, and can be accessed through a graphical user interface or integrated with other software such as QGIS. The software includes over 350 modules for rendering maps and images, manipulating raster and vector data, processing multispectral image data, and creating, managing, and storing spatial data. GRASS GIS is widely used in academic and commercial settings, as well as by governmental agencies.

GeoPandas
GeoPandas is an open-source project to make working with geospatial data in python easier. GeoPandas extends the datatypes used by pandas to allow spatial operations on geometric types. Geometric operations are performed by shapely. Geopandas further depends on fiona for file access and matplotlib for plotting. The goal of GeoPandas is to make working with geospatial data in python easier. It combines the capabilities of pandas and shapely, providing geospatial operations in pandas and a high-level interface to multiple geometries to shapely. GeoPandas enables you to easily do operations in python that would otherwise require a spatial database such as PostGIS. GeoPandas is a community-led project written, used and supported by a wide range of people from all around of world of a large variety of backgrounds. GeoPandas will always be 100% open source software, free for all to use and released under the liberal terms of the BSD-3-Clause license.
