NAME
r.in.gif - Converts a GIF87 (8bit) raster file to a GRASS raster file.
(GRASS Raster Data Import Program)
SYNOPSIS
r.in.gif [-v] input=name output=name [title=name]
DESCRIPTION
This program converts a GIF raster file (8bit) to a GRASS raster file.
Output is placed in the /cell directory
under the user's current GRASS mapset.
OPTIONS
Flag:
- -v
- Verbose mode
Parameters:
- input=name
- Name of an existing GIF raster file to be imported.
- output=name
- Name to be assigned to resultant binary raster map layer.
- title="phrase"
- Title to be assigned to resultant raster map layer.
The program prompts the user to enter the name of the GIF raster file to be
converted and the name to be assigned to the GRASS raster file
to contain the resultant image.
The user should adjust boundary coordinates stored in the cell header after
import using r.support
.
The user must, of course, first create the GIF raster file to be
converted (e.g., from a scanning system that produces GIF raster file format).
NOTE
The GIF89 format is currently not accepted.
