In GRASS GIS, you can set the resolution of the raster output (on the Region tab) just like for any SEXTANTE module with raster output. This is also true for v.to.rast. You can set it to as fine a resolution as you like.
I guess you can also use the Raster Calculator's if() function to replace the "no data" value with "0" (or whatever you prefer). E.g. a possible algebra expression would be: if(map==-99999,0,map) (Replace "map" with the name of your actual input layer). Ben ----- Original Message ----- > Thanks Ben !
