v.to.rast3(1grass) GRASS GIS User's Manual v.to.rast3(1grass)
NAME
v.to.rast3 - Converts a vector map (only points) into a 3D raster map.
KEYWORDS
vector, conversion, voxel
SYNOPSIS
v.to.rast3
v.to.rast3 --help
v.to.rast3 input=name [layer=string] output=name column=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
Vector features can have category values in different layers. This
number determines which layer to use. When used with direct OGR ac-
cess this is the layer name.
Default: 1
output=name [required]
Name for output 3D raster map
column=name [required]
Name of attribute column (data type must be numeric)
DESCRIPTION
v.to.rast3 converts a GRASS 3D vector point map to a GRASS 3D raster
map.
NOTES
When converting from a 3D vector point layer to a 3D raster map a vec-
tor point is converted into a single 3D raster cell (voxel) represent-
ing the location of the vector point. As 3D raster cell value the data-
base attribute of the vector point is stored with floating point pre-
cision.
This screenshot shows the result of the v.to.rast3 test. Vi-
sualized are the cube of the grass region, the vector points
as black dots and the voxel cells as wireframe model. Only
cells with non-null values are shown.
