That is were the third step should follow, i.e. using r.mapcalc to identify all the cells that are 1m higher than the grown river (irrespective in which distance from the river these cells are located). The rasterized area could then be translated into a vector format using r.to.vect. Here a

Hey Johannes, Thanks for your reply. How does r.grow work if let's say the height above the river reaches 1m at 3meters away from the river. And in an other area it reaches the 1meter height at 2meters away from the river. Is it able to follow that line? Thanks On Domh 16 MFómh 2018 at 17:21,

Hi, I'm not sure I made myself clear. I have a "real" river vector dataset of an area. It includes artificial channels also. This dataset was digitised manually and does not match the extracted river dataset from DTM algorithms in grass (r.stream.extraxt) I need to use the real river vector

To me this looks like a flooding-related question, i.e. to extract the shore lines of a river if it's water level is raised by 1m or 3m? Maybe (1) extract the raster cells of the elevation map that represents the river channel, (2) then apply r.grow and (3) then r.mapcalc to subtract the grown
