Dear GRASS users,

If anyone has experience using the NASA nightlights datasets, I would
appreciate a conversation. I am thinking of using it to track city level
growth in spatial boundaries, demographics etc for Indian cities, but would
like to discuss with anyone more experienced with the datasets first
(resolution, saturation effects etc, inter-calibration).

I am first thinking of trying to use this to spatiotemporaly interpolate
ward-scale population between (10 yr) interval census years. That is, if i
have ward-scale (sub-city)population, can i use nightlights to interpolate
ward-scale population growth for each year in-between the census years..

I believe there is an incomplete add-on regarding calibration between
datasets?

Also, could anyone sugest a color style in GRASS that would work well?

Thanks, and a merry christmas and happy holidays!
Vishal
