Just when I have gotten used the process of importing USGS DLG files
to GRASS vector, I have a monkey wrench tossed into my machinery...
now I have some other format to deal with (for what I am guessing is land
cover data; a raster representation perhaps.)

So I call upon the collective expertise of this mailing list again
to help me out of the fog. Hopefully to someone this is a recognizable
situation. Below is the top 10 lines of one of the files. Can you tell
what it is? If so, how do I import to GRASS?

hat in hand,
