Hi Grass,
with
v.out.ascii input= output=
I can export a vector file. I have tested this feature and I noticed some points which seem peculiar to me.
This command creates …/dig_ascii/ with the vectors and …/dig_att/ with attribute-information. According to “Grass 5.0 Programmer’s Manual” (Okt 5. 2000) I expected it to also create …/dig_cats/. This is missing, even thought there are attributes attached to the .
Then I immediately imported the again with
v.in.ascii input= output=
I expected that has the same attributes as , but it had no attributes at all. Apparently v.in.ascii did not import the attributes stored in …/dig_att/. Is this correct ??
Also I compared the format of …/dig_att/ with the specification on page 45 of the Manual. It does not exactly match, the columns are different.
Please let me know if I made an error or if the modules mentioned above are not working correctly.
TIA, Stefan
