#331: extend the vector modell to be able to calculate real circular segments and circles => for calculating real circular buffers of points ----------------------------------------------+----------------------------- Reporter: mlechner | Owner: grass-dev@lists.osgeo.org Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: 7.0.0 Component: default | Version: unspecified Keywords: vector model curve circle buffer | Platform: Unspecified Cpu: Unspecified | ----------------------------------------------+----------------------------- It would be interesting to extend the grass vector model to be able to construct curves for using them to create real circular buffers instead of approximating them using several vertices.
I just was wondering - isn't it more effectice saving a buffer using one vertice and a "curved line" than using several points and approximate the circle. An appproximated buffer could still be in the data - only newly calculated buffers are more correct then. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/ticket/331> GRASS GIS <http://grass.osgeo.org>
