NAME

r3.mkdspf - Creates a display file from an existing grid3 file according to specified threshold levels.

KEYWORDS

raster3d, voxel

SYNOPSIS

r3.mkdspf
 
r3.mkdspf help
 
r3.mkdspf [-qf] input=string dspf=string [ levels=float[,float,...]] [min=float] [max=float] [step=float] [ tnum=integer] [--verbose] [--quiet]

Flags:

-q
 
Suppress progress report & min/max information
-f
 
Use flat shading rather than gradient
--verbose
 
Verbose module output
--quiet
 
Quiet module output

Parameters:

input=string
 
Name of an existing 3d raster map
dspf=string
 
Name of output display file
levels=float[,float,...]
 
List of thresholds for isosurfaces
min=float
 
Minimum isosurface level
max=float
 
Maximum isosurface level
step=float
 
Positive increment between isosurface levels
tnum=integer
 
Number of isosurface threshold levels
 
Default: 7

DESCRIPTION

Creates a display file from an existing grid3 file according to specified threshold levels. The display file is a display list of polygons that represent isosurfaces of the data volume. If specific levels are given, additional optional parameters are ignored. Min or max may be used alone or together to specify a sub-range of the data. The step parameter is given precedence over tnum.

Flags:

-q
 
Suppress progress report & min/max information
-f
 
Use flat shading rather than gradient

Parameters:

grid3
 
Name of an existing 3D raster map
dspf
 
Name of output display file
levels
 
List of thresholds for isosurfaces
min
 
Minimum isosurface level
max
 
Maximum isosurface level
step
 
Positive increment between isosurface levels
tnum
 
Number of isosurface threshold levels
 
Default: 7

Example:

With grid3 data ( phdata) in the range 3-7, we only want to see isosurface values for the range 4-6. Any of these commands will produce the same results:
 
 
r3.mkdspf phdata dspf=iso min=4.0 max=6.0 tnum=5
 
r3.mkdspf phdata dspf=iso levels=4.0,4.5,5.0,5.5,6.0
 
r3.mkdspf phdata dspf=iso min=4.0 max=6.0 step=0.5
 

NOTE

Currently the grid3 file must be in the user's mapset since the display files being created are specific to particular grid3 files and are contained in directories under them. We should create a mechanism where users may make display files from others' grid3 files without having to copy them to their mapset.
