Re: [GRASS-user] accumulation map from directions map

2009-11-19 Thread Achim Kisseler
Hello again,

I am still searching a method to generate a flow accumulation map from a
flow direction map.

I got the direction map from an arcgis user. In arcgis the module
FLOWACCUMULATION(FLOW_DIR) would do this, but I want to use an open
source solution.

If anyone could give me a hint, where I could find a tool like this
(inside GRASS it does not seem to be possible), I would be very grateful.

[GRASS-user] computation in a location based on infos from another location

2009-11-19 Thread Patrice Dumas
Hello,

I have 2 locations, one with a lambert projection with a 1 km grid
(comes from hydro1k), covering africa, and the other with a longitude latitude
projection with a 0.5 decimal degrees grid (covering the world). I have a 
raster map on the lambert location that has values of 1 for a given area and 
0 (or null) otherwise (corresponds with upstream basins) and I would like to 
compute the corresponding area covered on the lonlat grid. This would lead 
to a value for each cell in the lonlat grid corresponding with the fraction
of the grid cell covered by 1 in the lambert map. So, for example, if the 
cell is completly in the area in the lambert map, the value in the lonlat map
should be 1, and if half of the area of the cell from the lonlat map
is covered by ones in the lambert map, the value in the lonlat map should
be 0.5.

If the two maps were in the same location, I could set the region
to be the one of the lonlat map, and do

r.resamp.stats -w input=lambert_map output=fraction_covered

But r.resamp.stats doesn't work with maps from different locations.
And it seems to me that r.proj forgets the information about the 
initial grid although in this case it should be kept.

I have read the manual pages and the wiki but couldn't find anything
answering my question, except that it seems to be something uneasy to 
do in grass, since operations on different locations cannot be done in order
to avoid losses of accuracy:
http://grass.osgeo.org/wiki/Location_and_Mapsets

I may be wrong, but it seems to me that this kind of use of ratios to 
interpolate from a grid to another would be something that is done
regularly, and I guess that other kind of computations requiring
that geographic informations are not lost for each map would also
be useful.

Hi,

why dont you import one map from one location to another? Some
information will be lost, that would be the same like r.resamp.stats.

Hi everybody,

I want to write a script that creates an image of raster A superposed to 
raster B. I want that raster A have an opacity of 0.6.

I tried with the command:

g.pnmcomp input=raster_A,raster_B opacity=0.60,1 output=image_C 
width=800 height=640

but it appear the following error message:

ERROR: File raster_A not found

BUT I know there is.

So, what am I doing wrong? Do I have to do something more first ?

thank you in advance

[GRASS-user] least cost path analysis question

2009-11-19 Thread Maxime Phaneuf

Hi guys.

I want to use r.walk or r.cost, followed by r.drain to create least cost
paths. I've got no problem doing that with only 1 starting point and 1
stopping point.

My problem is when I try to use multiple starting and stopping points. I saw
that the coordinate and stop_coordinate were MULTIPLE=yes. But I don't
really know I to declare each point.

Let's say I've got those 4 points: pts1, pts2. pts3, pts4. I want to create
a path going from pts1 to pts2, pts2 to pts3, pts3 to pts4, and pts4 to
pts1. 

I've tried this: 
r.walk -k elevation=dem friction=cost output=output
coordinate=pts1,pts2,pts3,pts4 stop_coordinate= pts2,pts3,pts4,pts1 
and a lot of other rearrangement of the coordinate and stop_coordinate
parameters, without much success. 
I'm trying some configuration where pts4 does go back to pts1 and some where
pts4 doesn't go back to pts1.

Does someone know how to configure r.walk, r.cost and r.drain to include
multiple coordinates?

Thanks,
Maxime Phaneuf

Once I was in the same situation. Lambert projection is good for some
analyzes, because of the equal size of the grid cells.

To get the size of the grid cells, you could convert a N-S row of the
rastermap into vector polygons and get the size.

Not a very direct way, but it sould work.

Indeed, that would certainly do the trick. But this seems to be quite 
complicated. Maybe do a map with a different value for every cell, then
use r.to.vect to map every cell to a polygon, project it to the lambert 
map, do the calculation on the polygon, reproject it back to the 
other map and do a v.to.rast. Not very simple but not that complicated
either.

Thanks for the idea.

Re: [GRASS-user] least cost path analysis question

2009-11-19 Thread Markus Metz

Hi,

I think you have to determine each path separately and at the end patch 
them all together to get the path pts1 - pts2 - pts3 - pts4 - pts1.
The least costly path from e.g. pts1 to pts3 may not go through pts2, 
that's why the complete path needs to be forced through pts2, pts3, and 
pts4 and actually consists of several paths (e.g. one circular mountain 
hiking trail visiting 3 peaks, the least costly path from start point to 
end point is staying where you are...).


Something like
r.walk -k elevation=dem friction=cost output=output_1_2 
outdir=outdir_1_2 coordinate=pts1 stop_coordinate= pts2
r.walk -k elevation=dem friction=cost output=output_2_3 
outdir=outdir_2_3 coordinate=pts2 stop_coordinate= pts3
r.walk -k elevation=dem friction=cost output=output_3_4 
outdir=outdir_3_4 coordinate=pts3 stop_coordinate= pts4
r.walk -k elevation=dem friction=cost output=output_4_1 
outdir=outdir_4_1 coordinate=pts4 stop_coordinate= pts1


# Knight's move, so vector output seems adequate
r.drain -d input=output_1_2 indir=outdir_1_2 coordinate=pts2 
voutput=voutdir_1_2

...

v.patch input=voutdir_1_2,voutdir_2_3,voutdir_3_4,voutdir_4_1 output=mypath

Just a guess,

Markus M

r.mapcalc grid_map=col() + ((row()-1) * $rows_nr)
r.to.vect input=grid_map out=grid_map_v feature=area

Then in the Lambert map, I project and use v.rast.stats:

v.proj input=grid_map_v location=cru_maps
v.rast.stats vector=grid_map_v raster=lambert_map colprefix=stat

then, in the lonlat location I project back
v.proj input=grid_map_v location=network_af output=result_v

That assertion, your ticket #818, does not happen in grass7, but in 
grass6.x. I think this not the solution, however, the imported vector is 
corrupt. I'm not an expert on projections, but projecting the whole 
globe into some laea could cause all sorts of problems. Instead, you 
could create a vector in your laea location with v.in.region first, 
covering the extends of your area of interest. Reproject this vector to 
your ll location, set the region to match this reprojected vector and 
align with the desired resolution. Then run the commands to generate a 
raster and to convert it to a vector, and reproject that vector again to 
the laea location.


BTW, please add output of g.proj -j to ticket #818.

 per hour for 2 days). Is there any way to show the progression of my 
 data in GRASS? I want to show which schools (or other such data) is 
 affected by the path of my data (in this case, smoke from a fire). Any 
 have any pointers?

If you're interested in making animations then on the GRASS wiki [1] 
there are several suggestions.

One of the options is exporting the maps as png files then running a 
tool called gifsicle to combine them into an animated gif. I've used 
this [2] to make nice animated maps.
