[GRASS-user] convert + ghostscript

2019-04-26 Thread Massimiliano Alvioli
hi all,

I belive the last ghostscript update caused convert ot braek. I get a
generic "Abort" error
while trying to convert eps to png files.

Moreover, within a GRASS session, i.e. with GRASS tools, all mapsets but
the current mapset are readonly, that is, you can read data from other
mapsets but not modify them, even if the current user is also the owner of
other mapsets.

I understand this is case study involves a vast area and editing basins
manually (merging adjacent basins) is out of the question, isn't it? If
this is the case, I would propose to prototype a procedure based on similar
geomorphological characteristics to determine the 'optimal' threshold for
clusters, being optimal the threshold that gives you the desired (range of)
basin size. Just thinking out loud here. The threshold is the cutoff of
upslope area draining in the outlet cell. For a fixed threshold values, you
will obtain basins that are similar in size in areas that have similar
geomorphological characteristics, e.g. slope. I would cluster areas with
similar range of slope values and calibrate a suitable threshold that gives
the desired basin area for each cluster. This looks like a lot of
prototyping work, however, if you make a first run with a tentative
threshold value, display the resulting basins and visually compare with
slope map you should get a rough idea of what to do with the slope ranges
already.

Hope this helps,

Re: [GRASS-user] create basins of similar area

Hi,
Not to hijack this threadbut
Actually what Martin is asking for would be useful for us in geochemical
mineral exploration.  Having GRASS create 4-5km2 (or whatever size range)
basins/catchments automatically would be useful to create tentative stream
sediment sample locations.   I prefer to create my stream sediment sample
locations based upon catchment size much more than the traditional & often
miss used stream order method.
There is my two cents.
Phil

Normally, you can only write in a mapset if you are the owner of that 
mapset, so you could create a mapset owned by a "readonly" user/group.

right, it doesn't make sense probably from hydrologic point of view.
Let me explain reasoning. My colleagues are working on developing
distributed event-based model for surface and subsurface runoff and
erosion. We are working on experimental version which enables
computation parallelization. In initial phase AOI is split into tiles.
Instead of regular grid of tiles a basin-based tiles are used. This is
reason why basins (defining tiles) should be of similar area size.

Thank you,

Nevertheless, as far as I can tell, the PERMANENT mapset is "readonly" just
by convention. There are no guarantees, that the map will not be changed
during the session.

You could use the PERMANENT mapset for this purpose. Also, the AFAIK
mapsets are writable by the directory owner. So you could use the
filesystem setting to achieve what you want to do.

[GRASS-user] Read only mapsets

Hello everyone,

I was wondering, is there a way to enforce a Mapset to be read-only? I
guess that this can always be enforced on the Filesystem level with
something like this:

find . -type f -exec chmod a-w {} \;


but then again some file might need to be writable afterall (sqlite.db?)

So is there a way to e.g. open specific maps in read-only mode?
