Hi all

Well, since I'm only evaluating (for now) how to import GRIB's into GRASS, I wanted to test the r.region solution.
Can anyone describe me what to do regarding that suggestion?

Hamish, about the patch, I'm using GDAL1.7 so I cannot apply your patch. I'm going to reply on this in GDAL bug tracker.

Thanks

    It is so interesting to see vastly different approaches to solve a
similar problem.  I'm downloading NOAA forecast data which is in GRIB
format.  I run the files through degrib and then parse the shape files with
a C program using the shapelib libraries and create a new shape file which I
import into GRASS with v.in.ogr.  I plot the values with d.vect.thematic.

    The resulting maps can be viewed at:

    That reminds me, I originally set up a location for each region with an
eye forward on multithreading the map generation phases.  I forgot the
reason in the middle of the project and created several regions in one
location.  I had to revert back to a location for each region when I
implemented multithreading but reduced the total map generation time from
several hours to 15 minutes. :-)
