[GRASSLIST:5156] Can't find r.in.srtm in GRASS CVS

Tue Dec 14 10:39:22 EST 2004

Hi  ,

I download GRASS 5.7 CVS 2004-12-13  and built it using:

CFLAGS="-g -Wall" ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/app/grass-cvs-13122004 
--exec-prefix=/usr/local/app/grass-cvs-13122004 --enable-shared 
--with-cxx --with-mysql --with-mysql-libs=/usr/lib/mysql 
--with-mysql-includes=/usr/include/mysql --with-opengl  --with-blas 
--with-lapack --with-nls --with-readline-includes=/usr/include 
--with-gdal --with-x --without-odbc --without-fftw 
--with-proj-libs=/usr/local/lib 2>&1 | tee configure.log

but, after building process, at /grass-cvs-13122004/grass-5.7.cvs/bin , 
I found NO "r.in.srtm"

Is there any special command on "configure" to enable this module?

thanks in advance.

Hi folks,

I'd like to thank everybody for replies contribution... This show us how 
powerfull Free Software philosophy can be. 'Cause it's only about 
software, it's about to share data and knowledge.

Now, I'm going back to my SRTM task because I have more than one 
option/suggestion to do an only job.

Thanks all. I pasted all replies below!

 Eduardo,

you can use GRASS 5.7-CVS also, I have recently 
integrated r.in.srtm.

You can also get SRTM data in Geotiff format from 
ftp://ftp.glcf.umiacs.umd.edu/glcf/SRTM/

And you have the choice between WRS2 and degree tiles.

You can use Global Mapper, also.

Looks like you're grabbing the "unfinished" data.

"Height files have the extension .HGT and are signed two byte integers.
The
bytes are in Motorola "big-endian" order with the most significant byte
first,
directly readable by systems such as Sun SPARC, Silicon Graphics and
Macintosh.
DEC Alpha and most PCs use Intel ("little-endian") order so some
byte-swapping
may be necessary. Heights are in meters referenced to the WGS84 geoid.
Data
voids are assigned the value -32768."

You're going to need to do some processing before you can use these
files.

Eduardo,

Or, simply drag your .hgt files into some nice GDAL-based software such as
VTP's VTBuilder, which will automatically recognize the .hgt and load it
directly.

Eduardo,
This question has come up quite a few times in several lists I'm on. (I
asked once, myself.)

First, if you are using a Linux computer or can install Cygwin (from
www.cygwin.org) on your Windows computer you can use this bash script that I
modified from Markus Neteler's website:
http://mpa.itc.it/rs/srtm/

This shell program will change the name of the .hgt to .bil. It then
generates the .hdr and .prj files for the ESRI file reader. Finally, it
launches gdal_translate to build a geotiff from the bil file.

HTH,
Thom

There has been some postings on this list before about this topic. A google 
search on 'gdal srtm' will probably give you these.
Shortly, the hgt files are simple binary data, but can easily be 'translated' 
into a BIL file (which can be opened by GDAL) by generating the apporpriate 
(text file format) header file. You will find the exact answer on how to do 
this in the earlier postings on this list.

Good luck!

Vincent.
