#1168: r.surf.contour: use floating point for elevation values
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
Reporter: mmetz | Owner: grass-dev@…
     Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone: 6.5.0
Component: Raster | Version: 6.4.0
Keywords: | Platform: All
      Cpu: All |
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
r.surf.contour currently stores elevation values as integer because
historically there was no support for fp in grass rasters. Time to change
that, eliminating the need for the workaround described in wiki [1]. The
change required is small, thus milestone 6.5.
