</div>You asked<br>
<div class="im">"create a tmp grassdata/location/mapset in a script"<br>
<br>
</div>and creating the "grassdata/" is simply<br>
<br>
mkdir grassdata<br>
<br>
Then you can use the script indicating that directory or use Rainer's approach<br>
to copy an existing empty location.<br>
<br>
BTW: I only create temporary *mapsets* and work in the same location<br>
on a cluster (in this case the location is valid for all jobs). Much easier...<br></blockquote><div><br>One disadvantage though: as the location has to be on a shared volume, all data has to be transfered via the network backend of the cluster. If you need the data often, it might be considerably faster to copy the data to the local volume of the node, and work there and copy the results back.<br>
Alternative approach: you can have linked the temporary mapset, which sits on the local volume of the node, into the location on the shared volume - best of both worlds?<br><br>Cheers,<br><br>Rainer<br><br> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
