[GRASS-user] Raster Import
Dear List, I am new user for Grass GIS. I have some questions regarding Jpg or tiff import. When I use r.in.gdal which created 3 separate files as rgb. Then I use r.patch to combine rgb. After that i.point and i.rectify. From this i have to digitize river, stream, road, etc. So my question is as follow: Can i remove unrectified former 3 seperate rgb files? Is there any module to import without creating rgb because this increase the memory usage? I have to import more than hundreds of scanned Jpg, tiff. Can i crop the imported image without using other image software such as gimp or photoshop, etc? Thanks for any hint -- -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- U Kyaw Moe Aung, Staff Officer Planning & Statistics Division, Forest Department, Director General's Office Nay Pyi Taw, Ph:095-67-405016, Fax: 095-67-405016 ___ grass-user mailing list grass-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-user

Re: [GRASS-user] polygons and centroids redux
Thanks Markus! I think it would indeed be handy if a switch was added to v.what and d.what.vect in GRASS 7. In the meantime it might be handy to write a v.pip command for GRASS 6. I have written a point-in-polygon routine for other software (including R), but I would have to really study the file structures of GRASS vectors to attempt that in GRASS. If any GRASS programmers are interested let me know and perhaps we could work it out as an add-on.

Friends, This is the second time in two days I have had to post an apology and retraction for hasty questions. I apologize for testing everyone's patience. Thanks Markus; I was composing this message when I saw your post. I mistook a centroid of a polygon too small to plot at the current resolution as the centroid of the surrounding hollow area. My mistake; sorry. It does raise a question, however, of what the conditions are that cause d.what.vect to return a feature type of "Boundary" rather than "Area" when querying a map. Is it simply proximity to the boundary, and can that behavior be suppressed in preference to always returning the data associated with the centroid? Thanks, Dave -- David W.

No, grass does ensure that a centroid lies within an area when building topology (attaching centroids). After building full topology, the number of centroids outside any area is reported as Number of centroids outside area: Markus M ___ grass-user mailing list grass-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-user
[GRASS-user] polygons and centroids
Friends, If I understand correctly (based on experience with my own data), when GRASS calculates the topology for vector area data it doesn't actually ensure that the centroid lies within the area it represents. If the area is a torus, or at least hollow in a general way, then the centroid might actually lie in the void in the center of the polygon rather than within the interior of the polygon itself. It seems like it would be preferable to run a point-in-polygon check on the calculated centroid and move it of necessary to achieve correct point-in-polygon correspondence. This seems like it may also influence the results of v.what and d.what.vect as well, and not always identify the correct polygon if another centroid is nearer. I assume this is a well-known situation, and that perhaps the solution for complex (sometimes hollow) polygons (following advice from Achim Kesseler)is to do a v.to.rast and sample the raster. Is that considered best practice for complex area data, or are there better approaches? Is v.what reliable in these situations, including in point-in-polygon mode? Thanks, Dave -- David W.

Hi list, I'm trying to do a randomForest classification in a MODIS NDVI time series. So far I've been able to generate the randomForest and get the Grass NDVI images inside grass as a SpatialGridDataFrame. Then, following some notes from Markus Neteler [1], I converted the SpatialGridDataFrame to a DataFrame and sucessfully applied the randomForest classifier. The problem is that now I'm struglling to transform the DataFrame back to a grass image. What is giving me a headach is that the images contains lots of null values (I need to have a MASK in place) so, each NDVI image has 1023701 cells but the DataFrame has only 264647 values since the conversion from SpatialGrid to DataFrame skips the nulls.

Hamish, about the patch, I'm using GDAL1.7 so I cannot apply your patch. I'm going to reply on this in GDAL bug tracker. Thanks It is so interesting to see vastly different approaches to solve a similar problem. I'm downloading NOAA forecast data which is in GRIB format. I run the files through degrib and then parse the shape files with a C program using the shapelib libraries and create a new shape file which I import into GRASS with v.in.ogr. I plot the values with d.vect.thematic. The resulting maps can be viewed at: http://www.ars.usda.gov/npa/marc/heatstress That reminds me, I originally set up a location for each region with an eye forward on multithreading the map generation phases. I forgot the reason in the middle of the project and created several regions in one location. I had to revert back to a location for each region when I implemented multithreading but reduced the total map generation time from several hours to 15 minutes. :-) Randy __ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 5189 (20100611) __ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com ___ grass-user mailing list grass-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-user

My idea was, at the end of the project, give an Linux Installer of GRASS with all my added modules and edited Menubars. But, yesterday I realized that "Linux is no good" for my department so I need to do exacly this but with winGRASS. I gave a look around and: - imposible doing with winGRASS binary since it does not support to add more files than the ones already included - OSGEO4W not possible because it's installing a GRASS version available at OSGEO server. I would have to "substitute" that version :) - Any suggestions of doing a stand-alone installer of GRASS plus a few modules of my own?
