s.in.grid

NAME

s.in.grid - convert Arc GRIDASCII output to site list.
(GRASS Shell Script)

s.in.grid file

s.in.grid is a awk script that reads the output of Arc/INFO's GRIDASCII command and converts it to a GRASS site list.

Typing the following:

Arc: GRIDASCII nitrates tmp

Arc: quit

...

GRASS GRID> s.in.grid tmp | s.in.ascii nitrates fs='|'

GRASS GRID> rm tmp

This procedure exports the GRID file nitrates from Arc/INFO and imports it as the GRASS site list nitrates.

awk may not be able to handle large ASCII grids. In these instances, try using nawk, or better yet, gawk.
