You may want to check out v.in.transects which accepts ascii input to create
areas from point data. You will need to give each an azimuth and define the
dimensions of the transect, not difficult at all.

The form is:

1:682635:4344636:202:0.0:0.0:$RES:$RES:81

Then run v.to.rast to get your raster map.
