Parameters:
input=name [required]
Name of raster map to pack up
output=name
Name for output file (default is <input>.pack)
DESCRIPTION
r.pack collects raster map elements and support files and compressed
them using gzip algorithm for copying. The resulting packed file can be
afterwards unpacked within a GRASS GIS session by r.unpack. Since the
selected raster map is not exported but natively stored, the current
region is not respected. Hence r.pack stores the entire raster map.
NOTES
By default, the name of the pack file is determined from the input pa-
rameter. Optionally a different name can be given by output parameter.
Currently only 2D raster maps are supported.
EXAMPLE
Pack up the entire raster map aspect into aspect.pack file:
r.pack input=aspect
The packed raster map file aspect.pack can afterwards be unpacked by
r.unpack input=aspect.pack
