Thank you Christian
What I am affraid is that when I convert Vector to RASTER I will obtain a mask that is not exacly the polygon in the boundaries of the polygon. For instance, if a pixel is "cuttted" by the polygons boundaries is it considered part odf the polygon or not?

Thanks
Antonio

There is no way to use a vector geometry in mapcalculator (or mapcalc) directly, hence, you have to convert it to raster before.

Subject: [GRASS-user] Using a polygon as a Mask

Greetings

I have polygon that I want to use to define an for which I want to calculate some indicators (almost as a mask). Is it possible to use it directly in mapcalculator or do I have to convert it to RASTER and only then I can use it in mapcalculator as a mask?

Thanks

Best regards,
Antonio
