[GRASS-user] unit of step in v.surf.bspline: pixels ?

Do I understand correctly that the ew_step and ns_step parameters in v.surf.bspline take values in numbers of pixels ?

Yes, the unit of ew_step and ns_step is pixels. Same for the v.lidar.* modules and v.outlier.

Ok, I have added this info to the parameter description and the man page.

Sorry, I was wrong. The unit of the ew_step and ns_step options is map units. When Roberto Antolin and Gonzalo Moreno ported the lidar modules from GRASS 5 to GRASS 6, the default answers for these options were introduced, suggesting that the unit is pixels. Since the unit is map units (has always been), a default answer can not be provided. Fixed in all GRASS 7 branches.
