[GRASS-user] texture instead of color

2011-02-11 Thread Martin Album Ytre-Eide
Hello. Does any one know if there is a way to get texture areas instead of/or together with a color? I tried to use psmap, and that work in a way, but it resulted in other problems. I have also tried qgis with grass plugin, which have good support for different textures, but I could not set a

Hi, I have a vector layer of 10 polys and have noticed some odd behaviour. There is a long delay of a couple of minutes on opening the attribute table (i'm accessing (Postgresql/postgis locally at present). Also when the layer is open applying a simple query in the attribute table manager

MrSID files are a bit tricky. This is a proprietary format owned by LizardTech (see http://www.gdal.org/frmt_mrsid.html). That being said, they freely provide decode tools at their website (http://www.lizardtech.com/). Working on OS X, I use their Raster_DSDK in a little command line routine

I am also working on OS X. But, I am using the MrSID plugin, from William Kyngesburye. So it seems that both gdalwarp and r.in.gdal are willing to import it. But, maybe I will try to search around for the apps that you are referring to, to see if they might do a better job on the conversion.

I'm not familiar with the Kyngesburye plugin and haven't used gdalwarp, but here: I want to import it into a UTM zone 17 project. So I did the following: gdalwarp -t_srs '+proj=utm +zone=17 +datum=WGS84' input.sid output_utm.sid it looks like you are just trying to create a new .sid file in

Hmm, something I've seen for a while (Mac only), and it didn't improve with the latest MrSID DSDK, is that there are errors in retrieving GCS info from a sid with GDAL - some parameters are reported wrong or dropped. It hasn't been a problem for me since I usually know the projection of the

I am not clear how to get useful results out of v.kernel. I have a vector layer imported from PostGIS that has about 2.5 million points. I want to make a high density raster to show where these points are clustered. I can get the vector layer to display in GRASS just fine, albeit without
