[GRASS-user] change location and mapset in the grass command line
Hi: I want to know if I can change my the grass location in the command line? I know the g.mapsets command to change mapset,how about the location? ___ grass-user mailing list grass-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-user

[GRASS-user] Calculating Length Between Points On Stream Network
I have a vector map of a stream network and want to find the distance between two points on the main stem. I have the geographic coordinates of each point on the line representing the stream. I tried v.what but I'm not comfortable that gave me the correct answer. The line between the two points is multiple segments where there are confluences with feeder streams. What module, used with the GUI or on the command line, will allow me to calculate the distance along the stream between two identified points?

Re: [GRASS-user] High resolution dem
[long, but hopefully interesting check out the link to the new surface trials wiki page in the middle] Frank Broniewski wrote: I am trying to create a high resolution dem from contour lines Until now all my tries where not successful. At first I tried r.surf.contour, but since my interpolation region is not rectangular and the contours are not evenly distributed (rough terrain), the result was unfortunately not usable really? how did it go wrong? For me it has always worked beautifully, and I'm working in mountains where the terrain is about as rough as you can get. approx 16000x16000 cell region size without problems. ( but it took around 7 days to compute, that alone was already impressive ;) ) yes, the search algorithm is very inefficient for areas with a lot of flat lands where it has to search for a long time to find the nearest contour line. (so in that way it actually likes rough terrain) My contour map is a combinatin of a national contour line map (5m vert. resolution) and contours from SRTM with 20m vert. resolution. are you sure that the two are in agreement? do the contour lines cross or does the hole in the srtm avoid that? I created a hole in the srtm contours for the national contour map and patched both together to avoid large gaps with no height values (mostly for r.surf.contour) um, why not use srtm directly instead of doing srtm - contours - dem? srtm's native form is raster, not contour lines. ... and then patch in the hi-res r.surf.* result in the middle. My region is 17.000 x 13.000 cells wide (5m horiz. resolution). So my that is getting big, but shouldn't be too bad. except perhaps for v.surf.rst (and r.fillnulls which uses it). hmmm... I wonder if it would speed up r.fillnulls save lots of memory if we added the no-table and no-topology -b and -z flags to the r.to.vect step in it? current approach is to use small regions (2000 x 2000) to calculate small subsets of the dem. Because of the algo used by v.surf.rst to create the dem the neighboring tiles do have different height values calculated at the borders. So it was not possible to just create the tiles and patch them together. I suspect this is making it more complicated than it has to be. Perhaps try running v.generalize before v.surf.rst? My next approach used an overlapping of 20 cells for each tile and a moving window average to calculate the mean of the overlapping tiles. The result was quite good, but the moving window approach resulted in null values where one tile ended and the other started .. (similar to the slope and aspect maps, where there is a 1 cell null border around the map in comparison to the input dem). these are caused because it takes into account all the cells around it, and at the edges some of those are unknown (out of region is equivalent to NULL). Unfortunately I was not able to remove the null values satisfactorily. r.fillnulls fails because of the large region, and r.resamp.rst does the job not very well. The stripes are still visible, though filled with values. the usual way would be to use one of the r.surf.* or r.resamp* modules, then use r.patch with the old map in the foreground and the interpolated map in the background filling in any gaps. When calculating a derivate from the dem, like aspect, the errors from filling null values are quite obvious. I take it the vertical jumps between tile edges are rather large? So to make my long text short: Is there a technique to combine two or more raster dem with (or without overlapping) with good transition/intersection (don't know the correct word) between two tiles? usually it would be a matter of making the overlaps big enough, and then using r.series or something to patch them together taking the average. I guess it would be better bias away from map edges somehow? Not sure how to do that beyond cropping a set number of cells with an inverse r.grow. but again 13k * 17k cells is not that huge so you shouldn't need to tile. (except for r.fillnulls/v.surf.rst). maybe r.surf.idw(2) or r.surf.nnbathy from wiki addons helps here? If necessary I can illustrate my efforts by creating a web page or similar ... 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. I decided to do some tests using different methods on the 1m contour lines from the NC sample dataset. Results are here: http://grass.osgeo.org/wiki/Contour_lines_to_DEM John Tate wrote: and then patched (r.patch) them all together. The patching should average out any differences. r.patch doesn't average, it uses the cell from the first-listed raster map which contains a non-NULL cell. Later-listed rasters fill in the gaps until there are no more gaps or no more maps. r.series will merge overlapping maps using an average though. I then cropped out each 1km tile (1000x1000). This was done so that the 1km tiles
