[GRASS-user] Working with multiple mapsets in one location

   While working in one mapset (version 7.3svn) I recognized that I had two
different data types in it (topography and features) and the features maps
needed their own mapset. Now that I've created the new mapset I want to move
the features (vector) maps to it but cannot find a g.* or v.* module to do
this. I thought there was a g.move module but I don't find it and the wiki
and other docs did not show me how to:

   1) move a map from one mapset to another mapset, and
   2) display maps that are included from multiple mapsets.

   If not possible I'll put all maps in a single mapset.

TIA,

Rich

Hi Rich,

I would use g.copy and g.remove. But you have to switch between the mapsets, first in target then in source.
In grass 7.2 this might be possible in the data tab?

Cheers
Stefan

Stefan,

   Now that you write this, the solution seems vaguely familiar from way back
when.

   I prefer the CLI to GUIs whenever I have a choice, unless the GUI is much
more efficient.

   On my second question, if I'm working in one mapset is there a module that
allows me to work with maps from the current one and other mapsets?

Thanks very much,

Rich

You can add other mapsets to the searchpath of your current mapset with g.mapsets
You can also address specific maps with their fully qualifieg name, like: mymap@mymapset

in https://grass.osgeo.org/grass73/manuals/general.html

there is a nice overview of all g.* modules for working with mapsets and
rename/copy /remove /etc data.

Helmut,

   Thanks again. I read through several while looking for a 'g.move' module.
