[GRASS-user] Import grd/gri-Raster from R-package 'dismo'

Hi,

I doing species distribution modeling in R using the package
'dismo'[1]. The predict() function produces a output raster file
with the prediction of the species distribution. The file which is created
is a grd file + a gri file.
What is the Format i need to set when I want to import this file into GRASS GIS
using r.in.gdal?
Has anyone experience with that specific ouput format and can suggest what to do?

With r.in.gdal you can not set the format to be imported, this is
automatically determined by the gdal library. If gdal does not
recognize the format (e.g. gdalinfo), r.in.gdal will not be able to
import it.

The default output raster format of the predict() function is the one
used by writeRaster() which in turn uses the default of writeFormat().
The predict() function accepts additional arguments for file writing
as for writeRaster(), so you could try predict(format="GTiff") to
write a GeoTiff raster.

HTH,

Thank you! setting the output format of predict() to Gtiff works perfectly!
