[GRASS-user] Grass in openSuse-Build-service

2008-07-29 Thread Uwe Seher
Hello! Ich thought that i have seen the Grass-rpms in the openSuse Buildservice some time ago, but i cannot find them anymore for 11.0? Are they available there, so that they can be added as a repository? Or can i add the 'regular' source as a repository? Thank you! Uwe Seher

Thanks Thomas. I think we should put these on the wiki... When I find time. I understand the coding scheme, but reclassifying from directions r.terraflow scheme to the r.watershed one yealds significative differences, and r.water.outlut works bad with the r.terraflow results... The main problem

Yes, there are some differences. Please look at where these differences are located and if they are significantly changing the results. In flat areas, there will be several possibilities about how water could flow. This might also affect the flowpath further upstream. Both the original version

Dear Markus and other r.watershed enthusiasts, I've thought of a way to make your faster version of r.watershed give identical results as the older r.watershed. r.watershed.old uses a breadth first search in section 2. r.watershed.fast is breadth first when the DEM values are different. The trick

Dear Chuck, r.watershed is a much valued tool in GRASS, for me the best watershed analsis tool not only in GRASS, therefore I thought about a a way to keep the results identical too. I am also aware that the closer the results produced by changes in the algorithm are to the results produced

I just want to note something very tactfully mentioned below. That is, all such algorithms are estimates of real watershed behavior. AFAICT, r.watershed produces a very good estimate of these parameters and dynamics. Nevertheless, we should be careful about trying to exactly replicate its
