Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCIIHi,
I'm a bit confused. How do you set the target locations/mapset with the wxGUI georeferencing tool?
I can exit out and use i.target from the menu after crating the group,
but only because I know it's there.?
You don't set the target. If you do, depending on how/when you do it, it will either have no effect or mess things up. The target is the current location/mapset.
In the old i.points procedure, you...
1) start up in the "source" location/mapset (often an xy location)
2) identify a target location/mapset where you want the georectified file to end up
3) ID ground control points
4) run i.rectify
5) quit GRASS and reopen in the "target" location/mapset to use the new map
In the new georectification interface, you...
1) start up in the "TARGET" location/mapset--i.e., where you want the rectified map to end up
2) ID GCP's
3) run i.rectify (built in to the georectifier)
4) use the new map
