I want to display only those sites for which chemistry data are available.
In postgres I write,

SELECT DISTINCT(w.site) FROM waterchem AS w
WHERE EXISTS (SELECT s.name FROM sites AS s
WHERE w.site = s.name);

Can I submit this same query within GRASS and have the returned sites
displayed by location? If so, is there a preferred method for doing so?

Just use everything after the first WHERE as argument for the 'where' parameter of d.vect (or any other module with a where parameter).



Sorry to butt in...
Can you have a where="" argument that references a table other than the actual vector map's table?
 
I tried with i.e. v.extract (to select records from a vector based on a related column in another, separate table, and I wasn't successful.
?
Is there any way to connect a vector map to a PG view ?

Thanks,
