DESCRIPTION
r.shaded.relief is a Bourne shell script that creates a raster shaded relief map based on current resolution settings and on sun altitude, azimuth, and z-exaggeration values entered by the user. If no output shademap name is given, the new shaded relief map is named .shade. The map is assigned a grey-scale color table.If no parameters are provided on startup, this program is interactive; thus if the user enters the command: r.shaded.relief
The program then prompts the user to enter values for: The altitude of the sun in degrees above the horizon (a value between 0 and 90 degrees), and The azimuth of the sun in degrees to the east of north (a value between 0 and 360 degrees). The name of a raster map layer to provide elevation values for the shaded relief map. Typically, this would be a map layer of elevation; however, any raster map layer can be named. The scaling parameter, which compensates for a different horizontal scale than vertical scale. If 'scale' is a number then the ewres and nsres are multiplied by that scale to calculate the shading. (Default=1.0 for equivalent horizontal and vertical scales.)
For ETOPO2 data a scale factor of 10000 generates an acceptable shading effect. For the special case when a latitude-longitude projection is used with an elevation map measured in meters or feet, the units can be set to automatically set the horizontal scale to the the number of meters or feet in a degree of latitude. The script scales latitude and longitude equally, so it's only approximately right, but for shading it's close enough. It makes the difference between a usable and unusable shade. The zmult exaggeration factor that changes the apparent relief for the shaded relief map. This can be any positive (or negative) floating point value. (Default=1.0)
Specifically, r.shaded.relief executes a r.mapcalc statement. Refer to the manual entry for r.mapcalc for an explanation of the filtering syntax shown in the above expression. See, for example, the section on "The Neighborhood Modifier".
r.shaded.relief then runs r.colors to assign a grey-scale color table to the new shaded relief map.
NOTES
To visually improve the result of shade maps from low resolution elevation models, use r.resamp.interp with bilinear or bicubic method to resample the DEM at higher resolution. r.shaded.relief is then run on the resampled DEM.FILES
This program is simply a shell script. Users are encouraged to make their own shell scripts using similar techniques. See $GISBASE/scripts/r.shaded.relief.SEE ALSO
