I found this related ticket: https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/ticket/942 Checking further, I found a personal wish email to MartinL from 2009. AFAIR I was dealing with LiDAR point clouds of the Trentino back then... and needed to know the average distance between points in order to optimize raster binning (meanwhile I would probably use r.in.xyz and count the points falling into each raster cell, then r.univar on the resulting map). However, to have the possibility to compute statistics on the distances between vector (point) geometries makes sense to me in a GIS. markusN _______________________________________________ grass-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-dev
