[GRASSLIST:4522] v.to.points attribute table

Hi everyone,

I have to convert hypsometric lines into elevation points. I use
v.to.points to create new points and thi work well.

I don't know how to create the attribute table for the points layer. I
would prefer to copy all field of the line layer to the point layer, but
I minimally need the elevation attribute.

Is it related to the lfield parameter ? Documentation about this
parameter in 5.7 manpage is not really exhaustive.

Thank you,

This we should fix (i.e. add a possibility to copy the table).
For now, you can
- reclass points using original line category
  (v.reclass col=lcat)
- copy table (db.copy)
- link the table to points (v.db.connect)
