topic_surface(1grass)
β¨ surface, but make it a vibe β¨
okay bestie, welcome to topic_surface from the GRASS User's Manual π this is your little group chat of modules that all live under the surface topic β interpolation, random surfaces, contour stuff, all of it. no cap, this whole page is just the guest list. let's go π¦
πΈ the modules (the main characters) πΈ
r.contourβ takes a raster map and spits out a vector map of the contours you asked for. lines on lines on lines β¨r.fill.statsβ fills up the 'no data' cells (NULLs) in a raster map with interpolated values (IDW), and it does it fast. obsessed πβοΈr.fillnullsβ the no-data areas in your raster maps? filled. using spline interpolation. glow up complete πr.random.surfaceβ generates random surface(s) that have spatial dependence. randomness but make it β¨spatially awareβ¨r.resamp.bsplineβ bilinear or bicubic spline interpolation, with Tykhonov regularization. fancy girly behavior πr.surf.areaβ prints an estimation of the surface area for a raster map. how much area bestie πr.surf.contourβ generates a surface raster map out of rasterized contours. contour β surface, the pipeline of dreams πr.surf.fractalβ creates a fractal surface of a given fractal dimension. it's giving infinite coastline energy πr.surf.gaussβ makes a raster map using a gaussian random number generator. normal distribution slay πr.surf.idwβ surface interpolation from raster point data via Inverse Distance Squared Weighting. say that three times fast π«Άr.surf.randomβ produces a raster surface map of uniform random deviates with a defined range. chaos, but within bounds πv.surf.bsplineβ bicubic or bilinear spline interpolation with Tykhonov regularization, vector edition. she's back and she's av.this time πv.surf.idwβ surface interpolation from vector point data via Inverse Distance Squared Weighting. same energy, vector flavor βv.surf.rstβ surface interpolation from a vector points map by splines. rst = regularized spline with tension, iykyk π§
