Hi, I'm working in GRASS 6.4.1 on Windows XP.
I want to use r.surf.contour to convert contour lines into a DEM. However, I first need to convert my vector contour lines into raster contour lines. My region is set to the contours_20m vector layer, with a 20m resolution. v.to.rast --overwrite input=contours_20m output=contours_20m use=attr column=HEIGHT Loading data... Reading features... Writing raster map... Converted areas: 0 of 0 Converted points/lines: 1593 of 1593 v.to.rast complete. r.info for the result is: | Layer: contours_20m@CDNGI_DEM Date: Mon May 02 14:18:00 2011 | Mapset: CDNGI_DEM Login of Creator: hanlie | Location: SA_Lo_29E | DataBase: F:\grassdata | Title: Labels ( contours_20m@CDNGI_DEM ) | Timestamp: none |---------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Type of Map: raster Number of Categories: 0 | Data Type: DCELL | Rows: 1772 | Columns: 1750 | Total Cells: 3101000 | Projection: Transverse Mercator | N: -3121229.69982072 S: -3156672.30728643 Res: 20.00147148 | E: -32474.90929218 W: -67483.27873573 Res: 20.00478254 | Range of data: min = 1620 max = 2460 | Data Source: | Vector Map: contours_20m@CDNGI_DEM in mapset CDNGI_DEM | Original scale from vector map: 1:1 | | Data Description: | generated by v.to.rast | | Comments: | v.to.rast input="contours_20m@CDNGI_DEM" layer=1 type="point,line,ar\ | ea" output="contours_20m@CDNGI_DEM" use="attr" column="HEIGHT" value\ | =1 rows=4096 As you can see from the number of categories (0), there is no information in this raster file. Can someone perhaps help me figure out why this happens?
