💖 r3.out.v5d 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the r3.out.v5d page — that's section 1 of the GRASS GIS User's Manual, and it's literally the glow-up your 3D raster was waiting for. ✨

🎀 NAME 🎀

r3.out.v5d — Exports GRASS 3D raster map to 3-dimensional Vis5D file. no cap, that's the whole job. 💅

🌸 KEYWORDS 🌸

raster3d, export, output, voxel

it's giving voxel export main character energy, fr fr. 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

r3.out.v5d
r3.out.v5d --help
r3.out.v5d [-m] input=string output=name  [--overwrite]  [--help]
[--verbose]  [--quiet]  [--ui]

🫶 Flags 🫶

  • -m — Use map coordinates instead of xyz coordinates. so instead of the plain xyz situation, you get map coords. iconic choice honestly. 🌈
  • --overwrite — Allow output files to overwrite existing files. yes she will absolutely eat the old file if you let her, so be aware. 😭
  • --help — Print usage summary.
  • --verbose — Verbose module output. she talks more. 🗣️
  • --quiet — Quiet module output. she says nothing. peaceful era. 🤫
  • --ui — Force launching GUI dialog. pop-up era activated. 🖥️

💜 Parameters 💜

  • input=string [required] — 3D raster map to be converted to Vis5D (V5D) file. like, you must hand her a map, bestie, there's no vibe check option here.
  • output=name [required] — Name for V5D output file. also required. she needs to know where to put the goods. 🎀

🌟 DESCRIPTION 🌟

so here's the tea: this module exports 3D raster maps to V5D format. ✨

the map parameter is a valid 3D raster map in the current mapset search path. and the output parameter is the name of a V5D file which will be written in the current working directory. that's it, that's the whole vibe. 💅

now let's talk about Vis5D for a sec because she is that girl — Vis5D is a system for interactive visualization of large 5D gridded data sets such as those produced by numerical weather models. 🌀

and the way that you can just… make isosurfaces, contour line slices, colored slices, volume renderings, etc. of data in a 3D raster map, then rotate and animate the images in real time?? obsessed. genuinely obsessed. 🔥

There's also a feature for wind trajectory tracing, a way to make text anotations for publications, support for interactive data analysis, etc. so yeah, she does a lot. main character module behavior, periodt. 👑

go read those too, bestie, they're the sibling modules and they're cute. 🦋
