+<h3>Generating random adjacent polygons</h3>
+
+To generate random adjacent polygons, first the centroids are generated as
+points, then a triangulation is run (North Carolina sample dataset:
+
+<div class="code"><pre>
+g.region vector=nc_state
+v.random output=randpoints6k npoints=6000
+v.voronoi input=randpoints6k output=randareas6k
+v.info -t randareas6k
+v.category randareas6k option=print
+
+# plot vector polygons
+d.mon wx0
+d.vect randareas6k -c
+</pre></div>
+<p>

+Random adjacent polygons from random points (here: used as centroids)
+</center>
+
+<p>
+To eventually obtain isolated polygons, selected polygons can be extracted with
+<em>v.extract</em>.
+<p>
+
+These vector polygons can also be rasterized:
+<div class="code"><pre>
+# rasterize polygons
+# note: rastermaps must result in at least 6k pixel in this example
+g.region vector=nc_state res=500 -p -a
+v.to.rast randareas6k out=randareas6k use=cat
+r.colors randareas6k color=random
+d.rast randareas6k
+</pre></div>

 <h3>Random sampling from raster map</h3>
