[GRASS-user] Aggregate a classification map according to a vector file

[Pedro Roma]

Thank you all. I thing I have managed to do this using r.statistics firstly
converting county polygons to Raster.
THank you guys

By the way, is there any special requirement, besides being a CELL, for base
data?

Thanks
