Re: [GRASS-user] raster import GRASS tools in Qgis
Hi, open the raster 1st in Qgis (not through GRASS tools) Then use the GRASS tools, then you will find the file choices. Same is true for shape files too. You have another list for Qgis too.

The SQlite setup was so easy (thanks to the book), and then able to start working with the tables was a breeze (literally as easy as db.connect driver=sqlite database="$GISDBASE/$LOCATION_NAME/$MAPSET/sqlite.db.) I'm not a SQL expert, but learned enough to do some sweet tasks. SQlite was rather impressive in working with 5.2 million records. Through v.in.ascii, it did load all the data (4 columns) into the sqlite database without problem (about 7 minutes on a 64bit 2.0GHz 2GB ram system - no table and no topology) > > With the v.in.ascii -t and -b flags you should be able to load 25million+ > points into a single vector map, but there is a limited number of modules > that will be able to use a vector map without topology.

You (Hamish) were right that the code was an intensity or strength of return signal. I made a nice "intensity" grayscale map, that was great. Since I dont need the intensity, or know how to use it to help separate the DEM from DSM features, the 3D point worked perfect. Thanks! > > > Question: what do you want to do with the data?

I had used it for some binning and statistical analysis of the point distribution of the lidar. it is pretty tight data. I want/need to do fancy cleaning with the v.lidar.* tools. However, not having pulse return counts to work with like the example in the book, I am not sure how well it will work, because only having an intensity value, I'm not sure how that relates to first and last returns. What I would like to do with the data is create a bare earth DEM, and a DSM of the elevated surface features. Then perhaps add elevated surface features like solid objects (e.g. buildings, etc) that would block terrain for shallow overland flow or r.lake simulations for flooding. Since the application is for watershed analysis (feature building, and ultimately running hydrology models in GRASS), so my goal is to create the most realistic hydrologic surface model to properly route the water. In theory, it seems to me that water should not route through solid features like buildings (extrude as walls?), but should be able to (and often does) route through shrubby or forested areas. In these areas, where there is canopy, it seems that those canopy elevations should be replaced with bare earth elevations, but allow water to flow through these areas. This is the first time I have worked with raw LiDAR data to create features or do watershed analysis, so this is a fun learning experience. Typically, I had worked with contour data in the past.

Done. The dbf file of the vector has not been altered. "v.db.addcol: command not found" is the key, the rest of the problems are just due to that failing. Did you install a full version of GRASS 6.3.0rc6 or just upgrade the v.rast.stats script from there? In 6.3svn I have just modified v.rast.stats (r30976) to better deal with v.db.addcol errors. It already had a test to see if v.db.addcol failed (exit code 1), but not if it failed because it couldn't run (for me on linux: exit code 127). Now it stops for any error.
