[GRASS-user] r.univar: different results with different projections?

Hello Cesar

That was weird, so I tested it again. The number of cells is the same for
both projections, but the values differ. This must be related to
reprojecting.

To me, they shouldn't de different, since a nearest neighbor should
preserve the original values. I'm not really comfortable with this, as I'm
not sure I can trust the stats after projecting.
