[GRASS-user] v.overlay + script

[Giovanni Pasini]

Hello everybody,
I have a question about v.overlay, (... sorry about my english)

Some vect:
from=railway (polygon)
to=streets (polygon)
sn=3 (snap thresold in meters)

with railway that run next to a street from streets layer whith some 
little overlaps and gaps
(see:
http://www.petaimg.com/u376/492fig1.png
http://www.petaimg.com/u201/464fig2.png
http://www.petaimg.com/u315/660fig3.png
)

I have add railway some vertices (v.edit tool=vertexadd) -> ${from}_mod 
and then I make:

v.edit ${from}_s tool=create --o
v.out.ascii ${from}_mod format=standard | v.edit ${from}_s tool=add 
th=-1,$sn,0 bgmap=temp_${from}_${to} snap=vertex --verbose #where 
temp_${from}_${to} is a vector of points (see script at bottom of the 
message and http://www.petaimg.com/u318/606fig4.png).

Now I have ${from}_s only slighty different from $from, now it is more 
close to $to (see http://www.petaimg.com/u253/302fig7.png and 
http://www.petaimg.com/u97/454fig8.png)

I want overlay the two maps:
v.overlay ain=${from}_s bin=${to} out=${from}_s_${to} op=or -> give me 
http://www.petaimg.com/u447/665fig5.png
Some boundary in the south are deleted?? why?

while:
v.overlay ain=${from}_mod bin=${to} out=${from}_mod_${to} op=or -> give 
me http://www.petaimg.com/u12/386fig6.png
is OK!?

I look for some topology problem in ${from}_s but it appear ok! How can 
I solve this problem?
I can post the vector files (as ascii), I'm running GRASS 6.4.0RC4 on a 
debian testing box.

Can you give some suggestion about snap_01.sh script?


Thanks in advance for the help,
giovanni
