I have a similar problem: imagine a set of contour lines which describe the bathymetry of a lake, so essentially contour lines which are closing a polygon but consist of different lines. I would like to get the respective polygon representation, i.e. the outer lines only and those turned into a polygon. I just tried v.concave.hull on it, however, it expects points and not lines. Does anyone have an idea how to achieve that? thanks markusN _______________________________________________ grass-dev mailing list grass-dev@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-dev
