[GRASS-user] problems with r.cost

One thing to try if you haven't already is to recompile grass with large
file support included. I don't know why that's not done automatically but
apparently it isn't.

Another, if region size is really the issue and you are a C programmer or
know one, is to modify the make file of a grass add-on called r.terracost.
It was written as a CS project at Bowdoin at a time when grass was at
version 5.3. With the move to version 6, the make process changed slightly.
The r.terracost files are available at
http://www.bowdoin.edu/~ltoma/research.html

Or you could get grass5.3 and run r.terracost with it.

Regards, Jerry

Hi Hamish,

Thanks for getting back to me.

I am using 6.2.1, and g.region -p gives the info:

projection: 1 (UTM)
zone:       10
datum:      nad83
ellipsoid:  grs80
north:      4269999
south:      4180119
west:       598614
east:       651978
nsres:      3
ewres:      3
rows:       29960
cols:       17788
cells:      532928480

I'm trying to run with the resolution of 3m, but when I change it to 30m,
there isn't a problem.  Using much smaller regions doesn't seem to have
this problem.  So is the file just too large at too small of a resolution?
 I'll try to run Spearfish and let you know.

thanks again,

paul
