<div>I'm not sure if I see all the details but if you can script in Python or Bash you can do something like iteration over all points using PyGRASS or v.out.ascii and textual processing (the later applies also for external files with points) and then set computation region using g.region around each point to sufficient extent. Then you compute the r.horizon and r.sun just in the specified (computational) region and store the results as maps and as text (using e.g. r.univar or v.what.rast). Does this make sense?<br></div>

<div>Thanks, Vaclav.<br></div>
<div> </div>
<div>That makes sense. I know enough bash to try that out.<br></div>
