Hi Ashley,

The possibility to return negative horizon values was introduced here:
https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/commit/688d5885557f22c7ea6618dcac3ddfbfc764731a#diff-5ce8290f429502e23efaf9ebdc18bd2b

The output with the d-flag is azimuth degree (-90 – 90, where 0 is parallel 
with the focal cell).
So, from my understanding, negative values indicate horizon height below the 
cell it is computed from.

Maybe the manual could be a bit more specific here…?

Cheers
Stefan

Subject: [GRASS-user] East/West Horizons Giving Negative Numbers

  Hello Everyone!

Can help me figure out what's wrong with my east and west horizon calculations?

I am trying to compute my east and west horizon angle from my DEM using the 
command r.horizon. My output raster contains negative numbers and it's my 
understanding that the range of output values should be between 0 and 360. I 
used -d to make sure that my output is in degrees rather than radians.

Can anyone help me solve this problem? Or point me in the right direction?

Thank you for the help!
Ashley

Here is the r.info<http://r.info/> output from my generated east horizon raster.
