.SH DESCRIPTION
\fIi.in.spotvgt\fR imports SPOT Vegetation (1km, global) NDVI data sets.
After import the digital numbers (DN) are remapped to VEGETATION NDVI
values and the NDVI color table is applied. The imported DN map is
removed after remapping.
.PP
Apparently missing raster cells due to bad pixel quality are reconstructed
by the SPOT operating team in the NDVI file. The differences between the
filtered (\-a flag) and raw NDVI map should be compared.
.SH NOTES
The SPOT VGT files are delivered in HDF4 (Hierarchical Data Format Release 4)
format. It is required to have the GDAL libraries installed with HDF4 support.
.SS Export of entire world SPOT VGT maps
When working with SPOT VGT with entire world extent, it is recommended
to zoom to \fIw=180W\fR and \fIe=180E\fR instead of using the map
extent for map export. These entire world SPOT VGT data are exceeding
\-180.0 degree which can lead to unhelpful large East\-West coordinates in
the exported file. It is also recommended to then use an export command
which respects the user settings. Example:
.br
.nf
\fC
# import:
i.in.spotvgt 0001_NDV.HDF
# export:
g.region w=180W e=180E n=75:00:16.071429N s=56:00:16.069919S res=0:00:32.142857 \-p
