Keywords

vector, geometry

Synopsis

v.split
v.split help
v.split input=name output=name [length=float] [vertices=integer] [--overwrite] [--verbose] [--quiet]

Flags:

--overwrite: Allow output files to overwrite existing files
--verbose: Verbose module output
--quiet: Quiet module output

Parameters:

input=name: Name of input vector map
output=name: Name for output vector map
length=float: Maximum segment length.

Description

v.split split vector lines into shorter segments using a maximal distance between nodes.

Example

Spearfish location:# insert kilometric nodes to railroad map: v.extract railroads out=myrr list=1 # join segments into polyline v.build.polylines myrr out=myrr_pol v.category myrr out=myrailroads option=add # show line, category, direction (to find the beginning) d.vect myrailroads disp=shape,cat,dir # insert nodes at 1000m distance (max) v.split railroads out=myrailroads_split length=1000 d.vect myrailroads_split disp=shape,topo
