NAME
       v.drape   -  Converts 2D vector features to 3D by sampling of elevation
       raster map.

KEYWORDS
       vector, geometry, sampling, 3D, surface information

SYNOPSIS
       v.drape
       v.drape --help
       v.drape input=name  [layer=string]    [cats=range]    [where=sql_query]
       [type=string[,string,...]]  output=name elevation=name  [method=string]
       [scale=float]   [null_value=float]   [--overwrite]   [--help]   [--ver-
       bose]  [--quiet]  [--ui]

   Flags:
       --overwrite
           Allow output files to overwrite existing files

       --help
           Print usage summary

       --verbose
           Verbose module output

       --quiet
           Quiet module output

       --ui
           Force launching GUI dialog

   Parameters:
       input=name [required]
           Name of input vector map
           Or data source for direct OGR access

       layer=string
           Layer number or name (’-1’ for all layers)
           A  single  vector map can be connected to multiple database tables.
           This number determines which table to use. When  used  with  direct
           OGR access this is the layer name.
           Default: -1

       cats=range
           Category values
           Example: 1,3,7-9,13

       where=sql_query
           WHERE conditions of SQL statement without ’where’ keyword
           Example: income < 1000 and population >= 10000

       type=string[,string,...]
           Input feature type
           Options: point, line, boundary, centroid
           Default: point,line,boundary,centroid

       output=name [required]
           Name for output vector map

       elevation=name [required]
           Elevation raster map for height extraction

       method=string
           Sampling interpolation method
           Options: nearest, bilinear, bicubic
           Default: nearest
           nearest: Nearest-neighbor interpolation
           bilinear: Bilinear interpolation
           bicubic: Bicubic interpolation

       scale=float
           Scale factor sampled raster values
           Default: 1.0

       null_value=float
           Height for sampled raster NULL values

DESCRIPTION
       v.drape  converts  2D/3D vector data into 3D vector format via sampling
       of an elevation surface. Three sampling algorithms adapted from  v.sam-
       ple were incorporated into this module: nearest neighbor, bilinear, and
       cubic convultion.

       v.drape will skip vector features outside of current computational  re-
       gion  or  where raster map has NULL value. It’s possible to include all
       vector features by specifying height value that  will  be  assigned  to
       verticles whose values can not be determined from raster map.

NOTES
       Additional  vertices  can  be  added  to  the  input 2D vector map with
       v.split.

       The module can be used in conjunction with v.out.pov and  r.out.pov  to
       export a complete set of vector and raster data for display in POVRAY.

EXAMPLES
       Spearfish example:
       v.drape in=roads elevation=elevation.10m method=bilinear out=roads3d
       v.info roads3d

       Create 3D vector roads map containing only "unimproved" roads. Set road
       height to 1000 m for all parts without height information.
       v.drape input=roads type=line elevation=elevation.dem output=roads_3d \
               method=nearest scale=1.0 where=’cat=5’ layer=1 null_value=1000

   POVRAY example
       #export the vector data
       v.drape in=roads out=roads3d elevation=elevation.10m
       v.out.pov roads3d out=roads3d.pov
       #export the raster data
       r.out.pov elevation.10m tga=elevation.tga
       r.out.png landcover.30m out=landcover30m.png
       # now write a complete povray-script and launch povray
