[GRASSLIST:7477] Re: DEM import

[Ian MacMillan]

You will want to use something like r.in.gdal for a raster file.  Sites 
no longer exist in GRASS 6.0, they have been ported to vector points.  
I am not sure that either of those files is typical for raster data.  
They sound like header files.
See http://grass.itc.it/grass60/manuals/html60_user/r.in.gdal.html
for data formats accepted by gdal.
