[GRASS-user] Re: IN: raster-flow-direction OUT:vector-network?

[achim]

Hi,

by the way, I solved my problem and want you to participate. If you are
interested in the script, just write back.

To get a network from a direction file I
- first made a raster file with a resolution tree times higher
- then I made eight raster files from this, one for each direction
- I added connecting, desired raster cells
- them r.to.vect
- and then I patched
(see attached picture)

Advantage in contrast to r.thin: even directly neighboring cells can be
considered. No little areas appearing and no shortcuts are made.

Hopefully helpfully for anyone,
Achim

PS: my directions

# 3 2 1
# 4 X 8
# 5 6 7
