Re: [GRASS-dev] sample vector temporal data

2014-12-03 Thread Luca Delucchi
Hi devs,

In r63363 I submitted an update of space time doc for several modules
using the new temporal dataset.

I'm going to make the new dataset available in the next days to test
and comment it.

Stay tuned ;-)

No, there are only monthly data which can be freely used for the sample
dataset. They have the daily measurements on the stations I assume, but we
would have to interpolate it. But I thought you have daily temperatures in
your LST dataset?

 Hi,


Hi,

 as you know we need to decide which data are we going to use for t.vect.*
 examples. One possibility is to use oceanfront shorelines of North Carolina,
 we can get this data easily from here:

 http://portal.ncdenr.org/web/cm/download-spatial-data-maps-oceanfront

 It includes these years, interval data in case of older data, and instance
 data from the past years:
 1849 - 1873, 1925 - 1946, 1933 - 1952, 1940 - 1962, 1970 - 1988, 1997, 1998,
 2003, 2004, 2009

 The advantage is that the data is public and basically ready to use. If we
 decide to use it, should we include the entire NC shoreline or just some
 detail (look at the attachment)?

 In addition, we can also create a vector time-series where the geometry is
 not changing, just the attribute changes (derived from the climate data for
 example).

 Any thoughts on this?


After some weeks without any comments I think we could proceed to
create the dataset.

 By the way, the climate dataset seems to be fine, we got the confirmation we
 can use it, it is not subject to the PRISM licence since it was interpolated
 at NC State Climate Office.


I would like to work on it and on temporal documentation in the next
two days, so what do you think about this plan starting from the
sample data for the temporal workshop [0]?
- remove some years from climate_2000_2012 data, for example keep no
more that 5 years, because right know the location is a little bit
heavy (about 700MB) and for documentation 5 years should be fine.
- create vector for static temporal dataset from towns querying the
rasters in climate_2000_2012 to create something like virtual weather
stations
- add the shoreline ocean data, maybe in a new mapset
- create at least one temporal dataset for each type (strds, str3ds, stvds)
- update the temporal documentation according the new dataset.

what do you think?

Helena in her answer was speaking about orthophoto and DEM for the
shoreline ocean data, are this data already inside the location
(elev_lid792_1m,elev_state_500m,ortho_t792_1m) ?

I agree.

yes, but there are no NC towns as points in the standard dataset. You could
use  precip_30ynormals@PERMANENT which are the meteorology stations, which
probably doesn't make much sense since but maybe it's still good for the
dataset.

- add the shoreline ocean data, maybe in a new mapset


Helena suggests here to select a smaller, dynamic area (some cape for
example) and also provide a DEM and ortho for that area (elev_lid792 is not
coastal) to get some context. I am not sure about this dataset, if it's
really needed, because I don't know what kind of temporal vector analysis
we could show in the manual. It could be a good dataset to show how to
create animations. If we decide to do it, I can help you with this part.

Another option is to derive contours from the temperature/precipitation
dataset. The advantage is that's easier to prepare.

- create at least one temporal dataset for each type (strds, str3ds, stvds)


Do we have any temporal data for 3d raster? I don't think we necessarily

Hi,

as you know we need to decide which data are we going to use for t.vect.*
examples. One possibility is to use oceanfront shorelines of North
Carolina, we can get this data easily from here:

http://portal.ncdenr.org/web/cm/download-spatial-data-maps-oceanfront

It includes these years, interval data in case of older data, and instance
data from the past years:
1849 - 1873, 1925 - 1946, 1933 - 1952, 1940 - 1962, 1970 -
1988, 1997, 1998, 2003, 2004, 2009

The advantage is that the data is public and basically ready to use. If we
decide to use it, should we include the entire NC shoreline or just some
detail (look at the attachment)?

In addition, we can also create a vector time-series where the geometry is

Re: [GRASS-dev] sample vector temporal data

2014-10-07 Thread Helena Mitasova
Anna,

to put these data into context, the dataset should include also at least one 
ortho (probably for 2009) and perhaps 
also a lidar-based DEM for 2009.
I think that the detail will work better - maybe you can show it on orthophoto 
or a DEM to make it easier to understand what
the lines mean.

To derive vector time series from the climate data where the geometry is 
changing just derive isolines for temperature 
or precipitation from the existing rasters. If the isolines are noisy we can 
smooth them out using v.generalize or reinterpolate some data.
This may be a simpler solution because it will use the same data set. 

But the shoreline may be more interesting.
