There are many ways to generate test maps. r.surf.random and
r.surf.gauss will generate random values, r.mapcalc can be used to
generate surfaces specified by an equation and/or random values,
r.in.xyz and r.in.ascii can be used to generate a map from data which
can be easily generated by a script.

Except for r.in.ascii, the bounds and resolution of any raster map
created as above will be determined by the current region.
