Dear Grass users,

I've been using r.param.scale to compute various type of curvatures over a 1 m LiDAR DEM (FCELL) (from opentopography.org) :

r.param.scale --o -c input=dem output=curvature size=15 method=profc
r.info -r curvature

I usually get reasonable results like (checked with independent calculations) :

min=-0.203124601340989
max=0.0685868278408049

But when running this command repeatedly, I randomly (usually every 3rd or 4th time) get very different results like :

min=-127112309.998249
max=131128979.492382

I am running GRASS 7.8.4 on Ubuntu 20.04. The problem is also present when running r.param.scale from QGIS or rgrass7 (in a R session).

I have replicated the problem with another high resolution DEM of different source (still FCELL), and also with a 30 m SRTM DEM (CELL), but in this case the occurrence of these odd results is less frequent and they are not contrasting as much with the expected outcome ("only" by a 1 or 2 order of magnitude). The problem is present with or without the -c option, and seems only to affect the computation of curvatures (profc,planc,longc,crosc,minic,maxic).

Has anyone encountered something like that, or have any idea about what might be going on?

Thanks in advance,

Vincent
