How is topology stored in native GRASS GIS?

How is topology stored in native GRASS GIS?

Topology is stored for native GRASS GIS vector format (the default). In case of linked OGR sources (see v.external module), only pseudo-topology (boundaries constructed from polygons) is written. The following topological rules apply to the vector data:

How is a vector map related in grass?

GRASS is a topological GIS. This means that adjacent geographic components in a single vector map are related. For example in a non-topological GIS if two areas shared a common border that border would be digitized two times and also stored in duplicate. In a topological GIS this border exists once and is shared between two areas.

How to export vector data in GRASS GIS?

To import and export only attribute tables, use db.in.ogr and db.out.ogr . GRASS GIS vector map exchange between different locations (same projection) can be done in a lossless way using the v.pack and v.unpack modules.

Which is the default database driver for GRASS GIS?

As a general rule these can exist in 2D or 3D space and are independent of the GIS’s computation region. The default database driver used by GRASS GIS 7 is SQLite. GRASS GIS handles multiattribute vector data by default.

Are there any problems with QGIS using grass tools?

WARNING: Unable to open vector map on level 2. Try to rebuild vector topology with v.build When I run v.build.check, I get: WARNING: Unable to determine input map’s vector feature type (s). WARNING: No attribute table found -> using only category numbers as attributes

Why is my grass tool returning an error?

Every single GRASS tool returns an error (will talk more specifically about what this is later). I searched stack exchange high and low, with no luck. My first hunch was that there was something funky with the CRS. However, after setting the data frame’s CRS to the layers, nothing changed.

Is there no attribute table for grass tools?

WARNING: No attribute table found -> using only category numbers as attributes To check the validity of my layers, I opened a blank map with the correct CRS and ran the Shortest Path tool from different points all over the map. It worked just fine.

What do you need to know about GRASS GIS?

Join our crowd funding campaign! Home. GRASS GIS, commonly referred to as GRASS (Geographic Resources Analysis Support System), is a free and open source Geographic Information System (GIS) software suite used for geospatial data management and analysis, image processing, graphics and maps production, spatial modeling, and visualization.

How to exchange vector maps in GRASS GIS?

GRASS GIS vector map exchange between different locations (same projection) can be done in a lossless way using the v.pack and v.unpack modules. The naming convention for vector maps requires that map names start with a character, not a number (map name scheme: [A-Za-z] [A-Za-z0-9_]*).

What kind of database is used in GRASS GIS 7?

The default database driver used by GRASS GIS 7 is SQLite. GRASS GIS handles multiattribute vector data by default. The db.* set of commands provides basic SQL support for attribute management, while the v.db.* set of commands operates on vector maps.
