But I'd like the interpolated surface to be a set of
100' x 100' vector grids, each 100 x 100 square with
a discrete elevation value. Is this possible?
after import & binning as a raster use v.mkgrid to make your 100x100 grid,
then use v.what.rast or v.rast.stats to give each square an elevation
value. or maybe r.to.vect is easier?
