Hi Micha,
May be with *r.neighbors *combined with /interspersion/ method you
can solve this.
Hi Milton
Thanks for your help.
If my reading of the manual is correct, the "interspersion" option gives
each cell the percentage of different cells surrounding it. I'm not
clear how this will help with the string of single cells.
But maybe running r.neighbors on the catchments raster with the default
"average" option will get rid of those strings...
I'll give it a try.
Best regards,
Micha
good luck

How can I avoid the problem of strings of single cells when
creating basins with r.watershed? I think this is referred to as
"ladders". Here's [1] an image showing what I mean.
In my example, the purple colored catchment has two "tails" of
width 1 cell. One tail separates between the light green and the
pale blue catchments. The other (northern) tail splits the dark
green catchment into two.
After running r.to.vect to get the catchment vectors, I'm left
with the two "strings" or "ladders" of tiny vector areas. The
southern string can be removed with v.clean tool=rmarea with no
ill effects.
However when I remove those small areas in the northern "ladder"
I'm left with the stream running *along the drainage divide* or
even zigzagging across the divide, neither of which is correct.
Can this problem be avoided? I've tried with a couple of different
dem sources, and at different resolutions and threshold values,
but these ladder phenomena always seem to appear.
This example was done with the ASTER DEM data, using a threshold
of 11000 and resolution like the original data (1 arcsec ~= 30 m.)
Thanks,
Micha
