Hi,

Hamish:Feb 28, 2010; 03:15am Re: High resolution dem
I am curious to know what the problem with r.surf.contour was. Usually
it does a great job as long as you take a moment to work around the
integer and NULL/0 issues.

Sorry that I quitted this discussion so silently, but I had to drop this and could not persue the issue further. Sometimes I really could use a 48h day :-) Of course my problems are still present. To take the thread up again, I want to answer to Hamish's question about my problems with r.surf.contour first:

DEM interpolation seems to work nice, but when you start deriving maps, especially the aspect map looks simply not right ;-) I've uploaded some example images on our server, so that you can see what I mean:

The data source is a shape file with contour lines with 5 meters interval. Conversion to raster went well and the pixel values match the height values for the contours. Before using the raster map, I multiplied the map with 100000, just like it is mentioned in the wiki. Interpolation took approx. 5 minutes. The region is 10,000m * 10,000m wide and has a 5m resolution. Before deriving the aspect map, I divided the elevation map by 100000 to gain real height values again ...

Now I wonder what could cause the gaps in the aspect map - since the terrain model itself looks OK to me ...

Many thanks

Frank
