Re: [GRASS-user] how to calculate area of voronoi polygons considering the boundary of the catchment
The issue was that the contours vector was 3d. Now i could put the centroids and add the area within the boundaries. I am struck at how to associate the area (cat|area) with the associated isohyetal lines? Any idea. Thanks Daljeet daljeet wrote: Thanks. I am using the first method that you suggested.

Hi Daljeet daljeet wrote: Hi Micha, I could create isohyetal lines using the suggested steps: ... clipped... Following are the doubts/questions 1. I saw the details of the raster created from v.surf.rst r.info rainraster zmin_data=0.00, zmax_data=141.322000| zmin_int=-13.588332, zmax_int=52.589905 zmin_data and zmax_data seems to be correct but I do not understand a) why the interpolated value zmin_int=-13.588332 is -ve b) and what is meaning of zmax_int equal to 52.58990 If I understand correctly, the zmax_int and zmin_int are the max and min displacements of the interpolated values vs. the actual data points. The RST method creates an interpolation which does not usually go thru the actual data points, but rather smooths over them. These numbers show the drift above and below actual data points. So you have one point where the interpolated rainfall is 13 mm (or whatever the rain units are) below the actual data, and one point where the interpolation is 52 mm above. 2. The target is to be able to calculate the area between two isohyetal lines and multiplying that area with the average rainfall within the two isohyets. This is to be done for all isohyetal lines. Average can be calculated by averaging the value of rainfall of the two isohyetal lines. But how to calculate the area b/w the two isohyetal lines? Well I can think of two approaches to this. 1- Using vectors: You might try to convert the isolines to closed boundaries, then add centroids and find some way to get the rainfall values into the centroids. This would require first to create an edge line all around the region (v.in.region will do this) to close the ends of the isolines, then run v.clean with the break tool to get nodes where each contour line crosses this region line. Then you should be able to convert the lines to closed boundaries (v.type) and finally v.centroids to create centroids in each of the resulting strips between isohyetal lines. But this procedure looks way to convoluted to me. Instead maybe you could try: 2- Using rasters: You already have the rainfall raster. Perhaps create a reclass raster map of the rainfall raster using discrete values instead of the continuous range. So your reclass rules would look something like: 0 thru 20 = 10 21 thru 40 = 30 41 thru 60 = 50 ... This will group together all values in the interval between 0-20 and give them the value midway between, etc. Then you could do r.to.vect fea=area to create a vector map, and finally v.db.addtable and v.to.db to get the areas of each strip into the vector attribute table. (Note that r.reclass requires an integer raster) After that long-winded response, I should add one more comment: Rainfall is not a continuous phenomena across a geographic area. There's no reason to expect that between the 40 mm line and the 60 mm line the average rainfall is 50 mm. If you stay with the original, continuous rainfall raster, and use v.rast.stats then the statistics are totalled on a cell by cell basis, and you avoid the unnatural results that might pop up when forcing the data into a framework of arbitrary intervals.

What I am doing which is making the loss of area in the case of polygons. Sorry, cannot help you as such. Start by giving the exact command lines used with each command. Also show the results of v.voronoi. And how did you calculate the areas ?

Re: [GRASS-user] how to calculate area of voronoi polygons considering the boundary of the catchment
These white spots in the voronoi vector may be the cause. But i ran the voronoi module on the archsites vector of the Spearfish60 dataset and its runs fine. The cmd was v.voronoi input=archsites output=arch_voronoi The only difference is that the region of archsites has got less points (around 25) whereas in Ind_rain_orig the total points were 93,000. Can this be an issue. Can you test the module at your end with less and huge data points and see if you also get similar results in both the cases. This would be a great help. Also, i checked and the data of rain fall on voronoi vector is NOT NULL on these white spots (checked using v.what.vect). //d.vect Ind_rain_orig //The Ind_rain_orig looks like this - when the region is set to vector of Kerala //g.region vect=ker_rain_v http://n2.nabble.com/file/n3345107/Ind_rain_orig_reg_ker.png But when the region is set to Ind_adm2_v (whole country) the image is like //g.region vect=Ind_adm2_v //d.vect Ind_rain_orig http://n2.nabble.com/file/n3345107/Ind_rain_orig_reg_adm2.png Thanks Daljeet Moritz Lennert wrote: On 28/07/09 18:42, daljeet wrote: Hi Moritz, I am new to GRASS and the basic concepts of this field.

Can't you just run v.surf.rst to get a rain_info raster surface, then r.contour to make your isohyetal lines? Finallly v.rast.stats will add columns to the vector table with all the rainfall statistics.

[GRASS-user] how to calculate area of voronoi polygons considering the boundary of the catchment
Hi, I have the point rainfall data of a region. Few of the point data are outside the region of interest. I am making the voronoi polygons using the v.voronoi on the vector imported from this point ascii (x,y,z) data. The polygon may be fully inside the region of interest or may be partially outside the region of interest. In case of the polygon which is partially outside the region of interest, the area which is inside the region of interest need to be calculated. How to calculate this? How can i calculate the area of voronoi polygon. Thanks in advance.
