DESCRIPTION
The r.rescale.eq program rescales the range of category values appear-
ing in a raster map layer with equalized histogram. A new raster map
layer, and an appropriate category file and color table based upon the
original raster map layer, are generated with category labels that re-
flect the original category values that produced each category. This
command is useful for producing representations with a reduced number
of categories from a raster map layer with a large range of category
values (e.g., elevation). Rescaled map layers are appropriate for use
in such GRASS GIS commands as r.stats, r.report, and r.coin.
EXAMPLE
To rescale an elevation raster map layer with category values ranging
from 1090 meters to 1800 meters into the range 0-255, the following
command line could be used (without the from parameter, the full value
range will be used):
r.rescale.eq input=elevation from=1090,1800 output=elevation.255 to=0,255
NOTES
Category values that fall beyond the input range will become NULL.
This allows the user to select a subset of the full category value
range for rescaling if desired. This also means that the user should
know the category value range for the input raster map layer. The user
can request the r.rescale.eq program to determine this range, or can
obtain it using the r.describe or r.info command. If the category
value range is determined using r.rescale.eq, the input raster map
layer is examined, and the minimum and maximum non-NULL category values
are selected as the input range.
