r.cn2 sg=hysoilgroup lu=landusemap pr=practicemap hc=hyconditionmap cn=cnmap amc=AMCnumber
Parameters:
- sg=map
- Hydrologic soil group map name
- lu=map
- Landuse map name
- pr=map
- Practice or management map name
- hc=map
- Hydrologic condition map name
- cn=map
- Output CN map name
- amc=number
- Equivalent AMC condition number for the CN output
The command-line ordering can be in any form but all key words must be there to run the program.
EXAMPLE
r.cn2 sg=hy.soil.group lu=landuse hc=hy.cond pr=veg.cover cn=cnname amc=2
will create a CN map cnname for equivalent AMC condition II
ATTENTION
r.cn2 uses information from the four map layers by reading the cell layer and its category files. So it is important to update the category files for all four layers and it expects the categories of the map layer exactly as shown below:
For the hydrologic soil group map the categories may be either A, B, C, or D.
For the landuse map layer the categories may be either fallow, row crops, small grain, close-seeded legumes, rotation meadow, pasture, range, meadow, woods, farm¡steads, roads (dirt), hard surface, or water.
For the practice or management map layer the categories may be either straight row, contoured, or contoured and terraced.
For the hydrological condition map the categories may be poor, fair, or good.
If the combination of the four layers categories does not exist in the NRCS (SCS) CN table, an error message is printed and the program quits.
NOTE
The r.cn2 program is sensitive to the current window setting. Thus the program can be used to generate a CN map of any sub-area within the full map layer. Also, r.cn2 is sensitive to any mask in effect.
