DESCRIPTION

t.rast.neighbors performs r.neighbors computations on the maps of a space time raster dataset (STRDS). This module supports the options that are available in r.neighbors.

The user must provide an input and an output space time raster dataset and the basename of the resulting raster maps. The resulting STRDS will have the same temporal resolution as the input dataset. With the -e flag, resulting maps can be registered in an existing STRDS, that e.g. may have been created with a previous run of t.rast.neighbors. All maps will be processed using the current region settings unless the -r flag is selected. In the latter case, the computaional region is set to each raster map selected from the input STRDS.

The user can select a subset of the input space time raster dataset for processing using a SQL WHERE statement or using the region_relation for spatial selection of raster maps. For the spatial map selection the current computational region is used, even when the -r flag is given. The number of CPU's to be used for parallel processing can be specified with the nprocs option to speedup the computation on multi-core system.

Semantic labels are needed to relate output raster maps to input raster maps. E.g. with method=stddev, the user needs to know the spatial extent, the time stamp and the semantic label to determine which stddev map corresponds to which input map.

EXAMPLE

To smooth the maps contained in a space time dataset run:
t.rast.neighbors input=tempmean_monthly output=smooth_tempmean_monthly \
                 basename=tmean_smooth size=5 method=average nprocs=4

# show some info about the new space time dataset
t.info smooth_tempmean_monthly
