NAME
v.out.svg  - Exports a vector map to SVG file.
KEYWORDS
vector, 
export
SYNOPSIS
v.out.svg
v.out.svg --help
v.out.svg input=name  [layer=string]  output=name type=string  [precision=integer]   [attribute=name[,name,...]]   [--overwrite]  [--help]  [--verbose]  [--quiet]  [--ui] 
Flags:
- --overwrite
- Allow output files to overwrite existing files
- --help
- Print usage summary
- --verbose
- Verbose module output
- --quiet
- Quiet module output
- --ui
- Force launching GUI dialog
 
Parameters:
- input=name [required]
- Name of input vector map
- Or data source for direct OGR access
- layer=string
- Layer number or name ('-1' for all layers)
- A single vector map can be connected to multiple database tables. This number determines which table to use. When used with direct OGR access this is the layer name.
- Default: -1
- output=name [required]
- Name for SVG output file
- type=string [required]
- Output type
- Defines which feature-type will be extracted
- Options: poly, line, point
- Default: poly
- precision=integer
- Coordinate precision
- Default: 6
- attribute=name[,name,...]
- Attribute(s) to include in output SVG
 
v.out.svg converts GRASS vector data to SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) code notation.
In particular, it
- converts GRASS line, boundary, area, point, centroid objects to SVG 
  <path />, <circle /> elements,
- reduces coordinate precision in SVG-output to save bandwidth,
- extracts GRASS attributes to gg:name="value" attributes.
The 
precision parameter controls the number of decimals for coordinates
output (
precision=0 corresponds to integer precision in the output SVG file).
Export polygons from GRASS vector map soils (Spearfish sample data) to SVG format:
v.out.svg input=soils output=/tmp/output.svg type=poly
Export lines from GRASS vector map t_hydro (Spearfish sample
data) to SVG format, set coordinate precision to 0:
v.out.svg input=t_hydro output=/tmp/output.svg type=line precision=0
Export points from GRASS vector map archsites (Spearfish sample
data) to SVG format, include attribute str1 (name):
v.out.svg input=archsites output=/tmp/output.svg type=point precision=0 attrib=str1
