2011-06-16 Thread Sharon M
If working with vector point data and co-ordinates in meters, then using v.buffer with (e.g.) a major axis of 25000 and minor axis of 1 would create ellipsoid buffers around the point data. If you used v.buffer with only a major axis of 25000, this would create a circle buffer. On Fri, Jun 17
