NAME¶
r.surf.random - Produces a raster surface map of uniform random deviates with defined range.
KEYWORDS¶
raster, surface, random
SYNOPSIS¶
r.surf.random
r.surf.random --help
r.surf.random [-i] output=name
[min=float] [max=float]
[seed=integer] [--overwrite] [--help]
[--verbose] [--quiet] [--ui]
Flags:¶
Parameters:¶
- output=name [required]
-
Name for output raster map - min=float
-
Minimum random value
Default: 0 - max=float
-
Maximum random value
Default: 100 - seed=integer
-
Seed for random number generator
The same seed can be used to obtain same results or random seed can be generated by other means.
DESCRIPTION¶
r.surf.random produces a raster map layer of uniform random deviates whose range can be expressed by the user. It is essentially the same as r.surf.gauss, but uses a linear random number generator instead. It uses the random number generator drand48() or rand(), depending on the user’s platform.
EXAMPLE¶
g.region -p n=228500 s=215000 w=630000 e=645000 res=10 r.surf.random out=random min=0 max=100 # check result r.univar random
Figure: Random surface example (min: 10; max: 100)
With the histogram tool the cell values versus count can be shown.
