NAME

v.out.v5d.map - Converts GRASS binary vector data to Vis5d map outline format.
(GRASS Vector Data Export Program)

SYNOPSIS

v.out.v5d.map
v.out.v5d.map help
v.out.v5d.map input=name output=name

DESCRIPTION

v.out.v5d.map converts GRASS vector data (input=name) to Vis5d map outline format (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 GRASS binary vector data file.
output=name
Name of the Vis5d map outline file to be created.   The recommended file extension is .map.  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

The v.out.v5d.map program requires that the input vector map layer have full topological information associated with it. This means that the GRASS program v.support should have been the last program to have changed the vector map layer before it is run through v.out.v5d.map. If this is not the case, v.out.v5d.map will terminate with a message that v.support needs to be run.
