Dear all,
I am using QGIS 0.11.0 Metis under windows and struggle to import a
raster into GRASS. This is an ARCINFO/ESRI grid file in natural
coordinates (WGS84) whose heading is:
ncols 721
nrows 360
xllcorner -180
yllcorner -90
cellsize 0.5
NODATA_value 254
etc....
I do not meet any trouble when importing it from QGIS as a raster, nor
within R using the package rgdal and the function readGDAL, but when
using within QGIS the GRASS importation tools (r.in.gdal or r.in.arc),
something goes wrong. Il looks like the vertical resolution was
respected (0.5), but the horizontal resolution unexpectedely comes to
be 0.000693481 in decimal degrees (making the map a narrow vertical
strip...), see the output of r.info below
I get the same result reading a geotif from QGIS/GRASS with
r.in.gdal. The geotif file was obtained reading the original ascii
raster from R (everything OK), then writing it to a geotif with
writeGDAL().
Any idea about what may happen ?
Patrick

Dear Patrick,
Maybe the resolution of the current region in GRASS is set to the one
you are getting when importing rasters. One should set the right
resolution before importing.
g.region res=0:30
r.in.gdal -o input="U:\Documents and Settings\pgiraudo\Bureau\TEMPER\
AT\TEMPAVE.tif" output="tempave"
just an idea, hope it helps...
