NAME

v.in.mapgen

DESCRIPTION

v.in.mapgen allows the user to import Mapgen or Matlab vector maps into GRASS.

NOTES

This module only imports data into vector lines.

You can get coastline data in Mapgen or Matlab format from NOAA's Coastline Extractor at http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/mgg/shorelines/shorelines.html.

Matlab vector maps are simply a series of x,y data points. Lines are separated by a row containing NaN NaN. The array should start with a NaN row as well. Output from Matlab with this command:



    save filename.txt arrayname -ASCII
