[GRASS-user] Is it possible to export a vector as new table in existing spatialite database?
I would like to export a vector as new table in existing spatialite database. According to the GDAL pages (http://www.gdal.org/drv_sqlite.html) the SQLite driver supports "creating new SQLite database files, or adding tables to existing ones", but I'm not sure if this applies to spatialite, or how to create a v.out.ogr command to achieve this. Is it possible?

[GRASS-user] GRASS 7 and gdal-grass-1.11.2 plugin
Hi, I'm trying to install the GDAL-GRASS 7 plugin in order to plot GRASS data in QGIS. I downloaded the source (http://download.osgeo.org/gdal/1.11.2/gdal-grass-1.11.2.tar.gz) and followed the instructions in the README. When I try to configure with the following command: ``` CFLAGS=-O2 -Wall LDFLAGS=-s ./configure \ --with-grass=/usr/lib/grass70 \ --with-gdal=/usr/bin/gdal-config ``` I get the following error: ``` checking for G_asprintf in -lgrass_gis... no checking for G_putenv in -lgrass_gis.7.0.svn... no configure: error: --with-grass=/usr/lib/grass70 requested, but libraries not found! Perhaps you need to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include /usr/lib/grass70/lib? ``` This is the same error as described in the gdal-grass README, but the workaround (creating grass.conf in /etc/ld.so.conf.d with /usr/lib/grass70/lib, then running sudo ldconfig) doesn't help.

Re: [GRASS-user] GRASS 7 and gdal-grass-1.11.2 plugin
Hi Stefan, Thanks for the quick reply. Based on the discussion, I changed the entries in my configure file from 7.0.svn to 7.0.0. I also changed the paths in the Makefile to the proj tables and created a directory for the drivers. ``` sed -i 's/\.7\.0\.svn/\.7\.0\.0/g' configure sed -i 's/etc\/ellipse/etc\/proj\/ellipse/g' Makefile.in sed -i 's/etc\/datum/etc\/proj\/datum/g' Makefile.in sudo mkdir /usr/local/share/gdal CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/include/postgresql CFLAGS=-O2 -Wall LDFLAGS=-s ./configure \ --with-grass=/usr/lib/grass70 \ --with-gdal=/usr/bin/gdal-config make sudo make install ``` The plugin now compiles and installs cleanly, but gdal doesn't seem to be using it: # gdalinfo --formats | grep -i grass GRASSASCIIGrid (rov): GRASS ASCII Grid Do you know how I can make it use it, or how I can tell if it is even looking for it?

Re: [GRASS-user] GRASS 7 and gdal-grass-1.11.2 plugin SOLVED
Hi Stefan, After compiling and installing as described before, I was able to point GDAL at the GRASS plugin by setting the following variable: export GDAL_DRIVER_PATH=/usr/lib/gdalplugins $ ogrinfo --formats | grep -i grass - GRASS (readonly) $ gdalinfo --formats | grep -i grass GRASS (ro): GRASS Database Rasters (5.7+) GRASSASCIIGrid (rov): GRASS ASCII Grid Launching QGIS from the command line then lets me use Add Raster Layer (from my location's cellhd folder) and Add Vector Layer (choosing Directory as the source type). Now I can view my GRASS 7 data in QGIS.

Maybe I am just to ambitious with my region settings :-) , How big a region are you using? Have you had any luck testing it on a smaller region?

I've emailed Xianfang Sun who wrote the denoising part, (I just wrote the GRASS interface) and will let you know what he says. Or should I program a script for a moving window so I get smaller regions? Are there any problems then on the connecting borders, e.g. differnently smoothed surfaces at the edges Each of the cells moves individually based on their neighbouring points, so the edges would be smoothed differently. The magnitude of the differences would be very small, but many algorithms e.g. slope, shaded relief are very sensitive to them, so I think that they would show up.

Hi, I've uploaded a new module, r.denoise, to the addons repository. The module can be used to remove noise/speckle from DEMs including SRTM data. Removing noise can improve the results from other modules e.g. r.watershed, r.slope.aspect. Compared to mean/median filtering with r.neighbors, r.denoise makes much smaller changes to the data and is able to preserve sharp edges. The module is most easily installed on grass-6.5.svn via the command: g.extension r.denoise however, being a shell script, it can also be downloaded and copied to a directory on the path.

[GRASS-user] WGS84 (epsg:4326) - OSBG36 British National Grid (epsg:27700) offset problem - SOLVED
Hi,
I had a problem importing GPS data and features digitised from Google
Earth (both WGS84 datum) into locations with a British National Grid
(OSBG36) projection. I was working in a region in northwest Scotland,
and I found that everything that I imported was plotting about 100 ENE
of where it should do.
I have finally worked out why, but after a lot of searching, so I am
posting a summary of what I found here so that google will pick it up in
the archives if anyone else has the same problem in future.
The short answer is that the projection parameters that proj4 was using
were wrong, but they are fixed now. Noone using an up-to-date version
of proj4 should have this problem, but the Dag rpm repository still has
an old one.
The problem was that going to OSGB36 requires both a projection and a
datum conversion {1}. Prior to October 2007 {2}, proj was only carrying
out the projection, thus resulting in the large offset. You can check
if you have the new version by running 'proj -v' or by looking at your
epsg file:
cat /usr/share/proj/epsg | grep -A 1 British National Grid
# OSGB 1936 / British National Grid
27700 +proj=tmerc +lat_0=49 +lon_0=-2 +k=0.9996012717 +x_0=40
+y_0=-10 +ellps=airy +datum=OSGB36 +units=m +no_defs
The new versions have +datum=OSGB36.
If you have an old version, you can correct it by replacing the line with:
+proj=tmerc +lat_0=49 +lon_0=-2 +k=0.999601 +x_0=40 +y_0=-10
+ellps=airy
+towgs84=446.448,-125.157,542.060,0.1502,0.2470,0.8421,-20.4894 +units=m
+no_defs
A complication is that OSGB36 is slightly distorted with respect to GPS
projections (such as WGS84 and ETRS89) {3}. This offset is small, and
is only important for higher precision surveying. Many searches about
OSGB36 offsets bring up pages relating to this. If you want to
compensate for this too,
you can download a nadgrid file and use it {4}. For my data, this moved
the points by about 1 m.
I hope that this helps anyone with the same problem,
Cheers
John

Re: [GRASS-user] problem creating point layer from CSV file
To set the column type in db.in.ogr for a csv file, you have to create another file (e.g. points_in.csvt) with the column types. See: g.manual db.in.ogr or http://www.gdal.org/ogr/drv_csv.html Alternatively, load the csv file with v.in.ascii, which will give you a chance to describe the column types.

[GRASS-user] ps.map file title
Is there a way to set the title of the file in ps.map? If I convert the ps file using GMT's ps2raster -Tf, then the resulting file has title: Map layer = some_map Mapset = some_mapset I can change this if I edit the ps file by hand, but was just wondering if there was a setting in ps.map that wasn't documented in the g.manual page.

[GRASS-user] Icelandic / international characters in databases and ps.map
Hi, After initially being put off by seeing complicated scripts, I've started to use psmap. I wanted to use the postscript fill patterns to create a geological map that would reproduce in black and white. It's really good - the commands are pretty easy and the results look clear and excellent. Anyway. I have digitised some of the main peaks in the region, whose names contain Icelandic characters. Their names contain Icelandic characters. Using v.db.select, they appear to have stored correctly. When I use labels created from the vector, the characters appear as gaps with d.labels and as nonsense symbols using ps.map. I read on the psmap g.manual page about character encoding, but don't know how it applies to the labels/database. Can anyone help?

[GRASS-user] wxpython gui and v.digit
Hi, I have installed from source Grass65 devel_branch today. It compiled without problems.

Re: [GRASS-user] Icelandic / international characters in databases and ps.map - SOLVED
Hi, Solved. Firstly, I had to compile grass with freetype (which I didn't have) and freetype includes. ./configure ... --with-freetype --with-freetype-includes=/usr/include/freetype2/ I backed up my vector (as peaks_iso), then, as described in the thread, I opened the its dbf file in Open Office using character encoding ISO-8859-1. I had to retype the Icelandic characters into the database, and saved it. I remade the labels using peaks_iso and it worked fine. Thank you.

[GRASS-user] Raster Google Earth script using gdal2tiles.py
Hi, I've seen various ways of getting GRASS rasters into Google Earth tiles but always seemed to have trouble with the colours or the reprojections. This is what I finally found worked for me, so am posting it in case it is useful to anyone else. It requires a recent version of gdal (I have 1.5.2) to provied the gdal2tiles.py script, and the ImageMagick program mogrify to make null regions of the map (which were white in my map) transparent. I hope that it is useful.
