[GRASS-user] GRASS modules for territorial analysis

Hi all,

I am working on a set of GRASS for territorial analysis.

Does anyone here know any GRASS modules/add-ons that do the following:

1. Sort all cells in an input raster map into n categories so
that each category contains (approximately) the same number of
cells; with no data range overlap between categories.

2. Given a CELL type raster MAP containing category IDs and any
number of additional raster maps B,C,.., count the number of cells
from B,C,.. for each category in A and report per-category statistics.
If B,C,.. are CELL type maps, then statistics need to include the set
of cell values for each category in A; if they are DCELL, then
range, avg, etc. are needed.

???

If not, I will write them now.

Thanks,

Ben

IIUC, you are speaking about quantiles. I guess it shouldn't be too hard to extend r.quantile to print the number of cells in each quantile.

2. Given a CELL type raster MAP containing category IDs and any

Doesn't r.statistics do just that ?

You are right, r.quantile and r.statistics do all the things I need!

Thanks much,

Ben
