Actinia Grass GIS
Actinia is an open-source REST API that runs GRASS GIS geoprocessing (raster algebra, terrain analysis, time-series and satellite-imagery workflows) as cloud jobs over open geodata, returning GeoTIFF outputs and JSON job status. The software is free to self-host, and mundialis operates a public demo instance gated by published demo credentials over HTTP Basic Auth rather than a bearer API key.

Auth quickstart
- Sign up with the provider to get an API key.
- Send it on every request as a header
Authorization: <key> - The exact header isn't documented — Authorization is a common default; confirm in the provider's docs.
Stored keyNo key stored
Your key is stored only in this browser (localStorage) and sent directly to the API — never to greatapis.
