[GRASSLIST:5194] s.in.ascii

Hi,

inporting points data with with s.in.ascii i found a strange behavior,
points are X Y Z format, where Z is height in this case.
The value i found in the imported file is not height, but a progressive
number, this looks strange, is there a particular way to import from
ascii files to maintain the original value?

thanks, Michele.

Perhaps you need to include the "d=3" option to indicate three dimensions (two dimensions in the default).

"The parameter d allows to specify that more than 2 dimensions will be imported. Otherwise the third (or further) column in input file is treated as attribute."

s.in.ascci sites=mysites input=/home/user/my_ascii_sites d=3

Use "man s.in.ascii" for details.
