SBL wrote Hei Helumt, In that case I would probably try r.param.scale in order to identify flat areas at maybe different scale levels. V-valleys have a higher variation in aspect at the bottom (sides are almost facing each other and nearly meet at the lowest point in a V-valley). While

Hi Helmut, After a second thought on this, personally, (given that I understood your aim correctly) I would probably use a workflow like: r.watershed in order to extract the streams (which are not unlikely to meander or split up into different courses in wider U-valleys) r.stream.distance in

Hi Stefan, thanks your response. If you think of valleys in a hydrological perspective I would have a look at r.stream. modules for having a kind of threshold above streams (in m), and then use r.grow.distance for an inverted valley representation. If you think of valleys in a geomorphometric
