Hi,

I have two questions, first a specific one, secondly a more general one.

1) I have some aerial photos that I want to mosaic. I am able to do this with r.patch. However, the photos only cover about half of the region. In the remainder of the region, I would like to show a shaded relief map as a background to give context to the photos. When I include the shaded relief map in the list to patch, it comes out as varying shades of red. My question is therefore, what do I have to do to the shaded relief map to turn it into an 'rgb image' that I can include in r.patch.

2) More generally, what is the best way of converting a good-looking map into a georeferenced image e.g. by converting the elevation data into rgb pixel colour data. Currently I would use d.out.file then gdal_translate, but that is dependent on the screen resolution.

Cheers

John
