Welcome back :)

 I am working on some simple network analysis (road distances from a point)
 and want the output to appear as concentric rings.  I think I need to use
 v.net.iso on my road network but  it appears from the manual that the output
 from v.net.iso is a line file.  I'd like to push that out to a polygon to
 get concentric rings so it looks like I need a few more processing steps.
 Like I said, it has been a long while since my GRASS4.0/4.1 days - what
 would people suggest using to push the output of v.net.iso out to a polygon
 ?  v.surf.idw, v.surf.icw, v.hull ?  Aren't these all point interpolations
 and I need to interpolate from lines ?

Wild guess: connect points with identical attribute?

perhaps v.to.db option=start/end to get endpoints and then
string them together into a new vector line or run v.hull?

or similarly but with 'v.to.points -n'.
getting the line vertex order right might be a pain.


v.hull isn't the best as it cuts across bays in the blob, but
other than manual approaches (like above or digitizing by hand
around the lines with v.digit then snapping to underlying vertices), I'm not 
sure. Keen to hear any other solutions though.

how about after v.net.iso v.to.rast + r.grow? it would extend
rings a bit outwards, but..

Hi All,

I am returning to GRASS after a 10 year hiatus and I must say that I am 
impressed !

point) and want the output to appear as concentric rings.  I think I 
need to use v.net.iso on my road network but  it appears from the manual 
that the output from v.net.iso is a line file.  I'd like to push that 
out to a polygon to get concentric rings so it looks like I need a few

Thanks in advance !
