[GRASS-user] Unable to import some raster and vector type maps

[Eric & Elga]

Good afternoon.

 

Very new user of GRASS, I was finally able to run the native Wingrass63RC5 under Win2k after renaming the "wish85.exe" and "tclsh85.exe" into "wish.exe" and "tclsh.exe" (is that correct ?). I tried a bit the "Spearfish" example and everything seems to work fine.

 

After having created a new project location, I try to import SRTM3 and SWBD files but when I call the modules "r.in.srtm" or "v.in.e00" through the menu, they crash telling me that the « child process exited abnormally ». This happens also with the "Terra ASTER" and "SPOT NDVI" ones for example, while others, like "Binary", seem to work fine.

 

If I use QGIS to call the module "r.in.srtm" it doesn't crash, but when I specify a compressed (or even uncompressed) SRTM file (without the ".hgt.zip" extension), it tells me « "unzip" and "file" are required, please install them first ». For "v.in.e00" it tells me « 'avcimport' program not found, install it first ».

 

Thanks for bringing me some help.

 

Eric
