DIGITIZING CIRCLES?

[Ron Owens]

Hi Anne,
One way to go around the problem is to digitize the center points of each
circle; convert these to a raster file; run r.buffer on the raster at high
resolution; reclass the map to 1 catagory; run r.poly on the reclass map to
get a vector map of irrigation circles.

Good luck,

rono
