✨ Topic: metadata ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the metadata corner of GRASS GIS 🌸 this is where all the little tools live that tell you what a map actually is, and let you poke at the info hanging off it. no cap, it's giving backstage pass energy 💅

Here's the whole squad, fr fr:

  • r.describe — prints a terse list of the category values it finds in a raster map layer. just the hits, no fluff ✨
  • r.info — outputs basic information about a raster map. the vibe check for your raster 👑
  • r.region — sets the boundary definitions for a raster map. drawing the lines, literally 🎀
  • r.support — lets you create and/or modify raster map layer support files. main character energy for maintenance 🛠️
  • r.timestamp — modifies a timestamp for a raster map. time is fake but timestamps are real 💖
  • r3.info — outputs basic information about a user-specified 3D raster map layer. yes, three whole dimensions 🦋
  • r3.support — lets you create and/or modify 3D raster map layer support files. support files for the 3D girlies 🌈
  • r3.timestamp — modifies a timestamp for a 3D raster map. 3D and time-aware, obsessed ⭐
  • t.info — lists information about space time datasets and maps. spacetime lore 🪐
  • t.select — selects maps from space time datasets by topological relationships to other space time datasets using temporal algebra. yes queen, do math on time itself 💀
  • t.support — modifies the metadata of a space time dataset. glow-up for your dataset 🌸
  • t.upgrade — upgrades the version of the temporal database. character development arc, honestly ✨
  • v.info — outputs basic information about a vector map. vector map, meet your reflection 🪞
  • v.support — updates vector map metadata. keeping the receipts fresh 💅
  • v.timestamp — modifies a timestamp for a vector map. stamp it and go 🎀
