[GRASS-user] v.surf.rst geological surfaces

[Dylan Beaudette]

Hi Francesco,

it is possible "model" discontinuous features (the gully example in the GRASS 
book [1] comes to mind) however there are important limitations that you must 
consider. Try searching past archives of this list- for some rather long 
discussions on a similar topic: breaklines, rst, nnbathy.

Maciej has implemented an alternate interpolator which may do what you need.

Post back with your results, or further questions if the archives do not help.

Cheers,

Dylan
