[GRASS-user] Peak point extraction from DEM

There used to be a perl script to generate map-calc code which might do what you are after.

Have a look at http://grass.gdf-hannover.de/wiki/GRASS_AddOns:

  • Local maxima is a Perl script for r.mapcalc . It detects local maxima of the image.
    Author: Jachym Cepicky
    **Usage:**
    local_maxima.pl -i input -o output -s matrix_size|r.mapcalc

The link is stale, but the author is still alive, so he might have the code.

Hey, great thanks Ludwig!

I’ll be sure to follow that trail, looks really helpful for the type of analysis work I’m doing.

I should really brush up on pearl scripting.

cheers!
