<div>Hi GRASS user-list,</div><div><br></div><div>I think that I have run into a bug in either the computational window definition or the r.water.outlet program (or maybe something else) that has to do with defining degrees West as either positive (East-longitude >180) or negative.</div>
<div><br></div><div>What happens is that, for example, I type:</div><div>r.water.outlet drainage=$watershed_direction basin=temp_basin easting=196 northing=60 --verbose --overwrite</div><div><br></div><div>And GRASS returns:</div>
<div><div>WARNING: Warning, ignoring point outside window:</div><div> -164.0000,60.0000</div></div><div><br></div><div>This occurs no matter whether I specify the longitude as a positive East-longitude (as above), as a negative value (e.g.,-164), or as, e.g., 164W. (196E is not allowed).</div>
<div><br></div><div>The problem is not my window definition, which includes the point in question:</div><div><div>proj: 3</div><div>zone: 0</div><div>north: 73:00:30N</div><div>south: 49:59:30N</div>
<div>east: 144:59:30W</div><div>west: 162:59:30E</div><div>cols: 3121</div><div>rows: 1381</div><div>e-w resol: 0:01</div><div>n-s resol: 0:01</div><div>top: 1</div><div>bottom: 0</div>
<div>cols3: 3121</div><div>rows3: 1381</div><div>depths: 1</div><div>e-w resol3: 0:01</div><div>n-s resol3: 0:01</div><div>t-b resol: 1</div></div><div><br></div><div>When I use r.what, it gives me East-longitudes (values >180) for regions to the East of the 180 meridian. But r.water.outlet insists on switching everything to negatives no matter what input I give it, which I think is a source of the problem.</div>
<div><br></div><div>The strangest thing about this is that I ran into this problem while following a routine that I had written several months ago in Bash; last time, I ran r.water.outlet on North America (all in degrees-west land) with no problems at all. I just checked the computational region (window) files for that run, and they look very similar to the ones I am using now. I have no clue why I didn't run into this problem back then / why it is cropping up now; both computers are running GRASS 6.4.1 on Ubuntu Linux.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Anyway, if anyone has any suggestions, I'm all ears. Many thanks in advance,</div><div><br></div><div>Andy Wickert</div>
