Hi grassers,
i need a negative buffer (inward area buffer) for a category of a raster
map.
r.buffer itself does not allow to specify simply a negative value for
the buffering.
I managed to calculate such a buffer with the combination of a
'reversed' map (reclassifying 1 to 0 and 0 to 1), a buffer around the
areas of this map and a r.mapcalc calculation to subtract this buffer
from the original map. But this is computationally very expensive and
the calculation of the buffer for the 'inverse' map needs a very long
time for complicated maps.
So i wonder if there is a simpler way to implement this.
Any hints?
Thank you in advance,
Andreas
