v.out.svg(1grass)           GRASS GIS User's Manual          v.out.svg(1grass)

NAME
       v.out.svg  - Exports a vector map to SVG file.

KEYWORDS
       vector, export, output

SYNOPSIS
       v.out.svg
       v.out.svg --help
       v.out.svg  input=name  [layer=string]  output=name type=string  [preci-
       sion=integer]   [attribute=name[,name,...]]    [--overwrite]   [--help]
       [--verbose]  [--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

       output=name [required]
           Name for SVG output file

       type=string [required]
           Output type
           Defines which feature-type will be extracted
           Options: poly, line, point
           Default: poly

       precision=integer
           Coordinate precision
           Default: 6

       attribute=name[,name,...]
           Attribute(s) to include in output SVG

DESCRIPTION
       v.out.svg  converts GRASS vector data to SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics)
       code notation.  In particular, it

           •   converts GRASS line, boundary, area, point, centroid objects to
               SVG <path />, <circle /> elements,

           •   reduces coordinate precision in SVG-output to save bandwidth,

           •   extracts GRASS attributes to gg:name="value" attributes.
       The precision parameter controls the number of decimals for coordinates
       output (precision=0 corresponds to integer precision in the output  SVG
       file).

EXAMPLE
       Export  polygons from GRASS vector map soils (Spearfish sample data) to
       SVG format:
       v.out.svg input=soils output=/tmp/output.svg type=poly

       Export lines from GRASS vector map t_hydro (Spearfish sample  data)  to
       SVG format, set coordinate precision to 0:
       v.out.svg input=t_hydro output=/tmp/output.svg type=line precision=0

       Export  points  from GRASS vector map archsites (Spearfish sample data)
       to SVG format, include attribute str1 (name):
       v.out.svg input=archsites output=/tmp/output.svg type=point precision=0 attrib=str1
