DESCRIPTION
r.info reports some basic information about a user-specified raster map
layer. This map layer must exist in the user’s current mapset search
path. Information about the map’s boundaries, resolution, projection,
data type, category number, data base location and mapset, the time-
stamp and history are put into a table and written to standard output.
The types of information listed can also be found in the cats, cellhd,
and hist directories under the mapset in which the named map is stored.
The user can save the tabular output to a file by using the UNIX redi-
rection mechanism (>); for example, the user might save a report on the
soils map layer in a file called soil.txt by typing:
r.info map=soils > soil.txt
NOTES
On large maps, the total number of cells in the map may not be dis-
played with an accurate number. This is only cosmetic.
Some standards (ISO-C90) and compilers do not support the ’long long’
type as a 64-bit type. In the case that GRASS GIS was built with such a
compiler, an accuracy message may be displayed in the output of r.info
after Total Cells.
EXAMPLES
Below is a full report produced by r.info for the raster map slope in
the North Carolina sample data base:
r.info slope
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Map: slope Date: Tue Nov 7 01:11:23 2006 |

| Title: South-West Wake county: slope in degrees ( slope_ned10m ) |
| Timestamp: none |
|----------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| Type of Map: raster Number of Categories: 255 |

| Range of data: min = 0 max = 38.68939 |
| |
| Data Source: |
| raster elevation file elev_ned10m |
| |
| |
| Data Description: |
| generated by r.slope.aspect |

| Comments: |
| slope map elev = elev_ned10m |
| zfactor = 1.00 format = degrees |
| min_slope = 0.000000 |

+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Alternatively, the output from r.info may be confined to a more terse
subset of the available information by passing various flags to the
module:
Output in shell script style, useful for eval (eval `r.info -g slope`):
r.info -g slope
north=228500
south=215000
east=645000
west=630000
nsres=10
ewres=10
rows=1350
cols=1500
cells=2025000
datatype=FCELL
ncats=255
Output the map data range:
r.info -r slope
min=0
max=38.68939
Output the extended map data metadata in shell style:
r.info -e slope
map=slope
mapset=PERMANENT
location=nc_spm_08_grass7
database=/grassdata
