[GRASS-user] 3D unstructured Grid

Hi Vaclav,

Question:
1-can the value remain constant until the next underlying data point?
2-by "the output is a regular grid"  does that mean that the points
(vector) can be unstructured, but in the end the raster or mesh is a
regular grid?  if that is the case, how does the value in the raster
determined? Is it an interpolated value between the points that fall with
in the raster cell footprint?

thanks,
Francois
