NAME

r.out.v5d.topo- Converts a GRASS raster map layer into a Vis5d topography file.
(GRASS Raster Data Export Program)

SYNOPSIS

r.out.v5d.topo
r.out.v5d.topo help
r.out.v5d.topo input=name output=name

DESCRIPTION

r.out.v5d.topo converts a raster map layer (input=name) into a Vis5d topography file (output=name) suitable for display with Vis5d+.

Vis5d+ is a free OpenGL-based volumetric rendering program for scientific data sets in 3+ dimensions.

Parameters:

input=name
Name of an existing raster map layer.
output=name
Name of the Vis5d topo file to be created.  The recommended file extension is .topo.  If a path is not specified, the file will be written to the current working directory.
If the user does not use any arguments, the program will prompt the user to enter these names.

NOTES

If Vis5d  produces a "nan hgt!" error when using the resulting topo data, reduce the GRASS region resolution or increase the rows and columns, then remake the topo data with r.out.v5d.topo.
