DESCRIPTION
List time stamped raster map layers that are registered in a space time
raster dataset. t.rast.list provides several options to list map layers
and their metadata. Listing of map layer can be ordered by metadata,
metadata columns can be specified and SQL where conditions can be pro-
vided to select a map layer subset of the input space time raster
dataset. Most of the raster map specific metadat is available for col-
umn selection, sorting and SQL where statements. Using the method op-
tion allows the specification of different methods to list map layers.
Method col is the default option and sensitive to the column,order and
where options. It will simply print user specified metadata columns of
one map layer per line. The comma method will list the map layer as
comma separated list that can be used as input for spatial modules.
To print interval length in days and distance from the begin use method
delta. Method deltagap will additionally print temporal gaps between
map layer. The gran method allows the listing of map layer sampled by a
user defined granule. As default the granularity of the space time
raster dataset is used for sampling. The output column separator can
be specified with the separator option.
EXAMPLES
This example shows several options that are available for map layers
listing.
Default query
The following command is the default one, returning standard informa-
tion like name, mapset, start_time, end_time of each map in the space
time dataset
t.rast.list tempmean_monthly
name|mapset|start_time|end_time
2009_01_tempmean|climate_2000_2012|2009-01-01 00:00:00|2009-02-01 00:00:00
2009_02_tempmean|climate_2000_2012|2009-02-01 00:00:00|2009-03-01 00:00:00
....
2012_11_tempmean|climate_2000_2012|2012-11-01 00:00:00|2012-12-01 00:00:00
2012_12_tempmean|climate_2000_2012|2012-12-01 00:00:00|2013-01-01 00:00:00
Add more info
The following command let the user to choose the columns to show
t.rast.list tempmean_monthly columns=name,start_time,min,max
name|start_time|min|max
2009_01_tempmean|2009-01-01 00:00:00|-3.380823|7.426054
2009_02_tempmean|2009-02-01 00:00:00|-1.820261|8.006386
...
2009_01_tempmean|2009-01-01 00:00:00|-3.380823|7.426054
2009_02_tempmean|2009-02-01 00:00:00|-1.820261|8.006386
Filtering the result by value
In this example the result is filtered showing only the maps with max
value major than 24
t.rast.list tempmean_monthly columns=name,start_time,min,max where="max > 24"
name|start_time|min|max
2009_06_tempmean|2009-06-01 00:00:00|15.962669|25.819681
2009_07_tempmean|2009-07-01 00:00:00|15.32852|26.103664
2009_08_tempmean|2009-08-01 00:00:00|16.37995|27.293282
....
2012_06_tempmean|2012-06-01 00:00:00|14.929379|24.000651
2012_07_tempmean|2012-07-01 00:00:00|18.455802|28.794653
2012_08_tempmean|2012-08-01 00:00:00|15.718526|26.151115
Filtering the result by time range
In this example the result is filtered showing only the maps which fall
into a specified time range (from .. to):
t.rast.list tempmean_monthly columns=name,start_time,min,max \
where="start_time > ’2009-06-01 00:00:00’ and start_time < ’2012-08-01 00:00:00’"
name|start_time|min|max
2009_06_tempmean|2009-06-01 00:00:00|15.962669|25.819681
2009_07_tempmean|2009-07-01 00:00:00|15.32852|26.103664
2009_08_tempmean|2009-08-01 00:00:00|16.37995|27.293282
....
2012_06_tempmean|2012-06-01 00:00:00|14.929379|24.000651
2012_07_tempmean|2012-07-01 00:00:00|18.455802|28.794653
2012_08_tempmean|2012-08-01 00:00:00|15.718526|26.151115
Filtering the result by selecting recurring timestamps
In this example the result is filtered showing only the maps which fall
into a specified recurring time range (here one month per year):
t.rast.list Tseasonal_fieldata_garda where="strftime(’%m’, start_time)=’06’"
Using method option
Method option is able to show raster in different way. By default cols
value is used, the value comma will print only the list of maps inside
the space time dataset:
t.rast.list method=comma input=tempmean_monthly

used for sampling.
