Can anyone provide  me  help in this regard how to use these command.; if possible, can anyone  contact me and give me a demo on how to execute the task. The GRASS module v.distance will do that. If you supply the parameters "upload=dist" and "column=<which column to upload distance into> " then in the attribute table of the "from" vector the distances to the closest feature in the "to" vector will appear. Also the parameter "output=<line vector for connectors>" specifies where to store the lines connecting the features between the "from" vector and the closest feature in the "to" vector. (You might want to post questions like this to the grass-users list instead)  My main objective of using Grass GIS is to determine the minimum distance  between one layer coordinates with other layer coordinates. I only have to  display minimum/closest links in the form of line between two layers.  Also,when grass displays the line, where does it store the information of  distance between the coordinates that are represented by the line.  Hope to have a positive response soon.
