pygrass.utils.coor2pixel(coord, region)[source]

Convert coordinates into a pixel row and col

>>> from grass.pygrass.gis.region import Region
>>> reg = Region()
>>> coor2pixel((reg.west, reg.north), reg)
(0.0, 0.0)
>>> coor2pixel((reg.east, reg.south), reg) == (reg.rows, reg.cols)

pygrass.utils.copy(existingmap, newmap, maptype, **kwargs)[source]

Copy a map

>>> copy(test_vector_name, 'mycensus', 'vector')

pygrass.utils.create_test_stream_network_map(map_name='streams')[source]

Create test data

This functions creates a vector map layer with lines that represent a stream network with two different graphs. The first graph contains a loop, the second can be used as directed graph.

This should be used in doc and unit tests to create location/mapset independent vector map layer.

pygrass.utils.create_test_vector_map(map_name='test_vector')[source]

This functions creates a vector map layer with points, lines, boundaries, centroids, areas, isles and attributes for testing purposes

This should be used in doc and unit tests to create location/mapset independent vector map layer. This map includes 3 points, 3 lines, 11 boundaries and 4 centroids. The attribute table contains cat, name and value columns.

param map_name: The vector map name that should be used

pygrass.utils.get_raster_for_points(poi_vector, raster, column=None, region=None)[source]

Query a raster map for each point feature of a vector

Example

>>> from grass.pygrass.raster import RasterRow
>>> from grass.pygrass.gis.region import Region
>>> from grass.pygrass.vector import VectorTopo
>>> from grass.pygrass.vector.geometry import Point

Create a vector map

>>> cols = [(u'cat', 'INTEGER PRIMARY KEY'),
...         (u'value', 'double precision')]
>>> vect = VectorTopo("test_vect_2")
>>> vect.open("w",tab_name="test_vect_2",
...           tab_cols=cols)
>>> vect.write(Point(10, 6), cat=1, attrs=[10, ])
>>> vect.write(Point(12, 6), cat=2, attrs=[12, ])
>>> vect.write(Point(14, 6), cat=3, attrs=[14, ])
>>> vect.table.conn.commit()
>>> vect.close()

Setup the raster sampling

>>> region = Region()
>>> region.from_rast(test_raster_name)
>>> region.set_raster_region()
>>> ele = RasterRow(test_raster_name)

Sample the raster layer at the given points, return a list of values

>>> l = get_raster_for_points(vect, ele, region=region)
>>> l[0]                                        # doctest: +ELLIPSIS
(1, 10.0, 6.0, 1)
>>> l[1]                                        # doctest: +ELLIPSIS
(2, 12.0, 6.0, 1)

Add a new column and sample again

>>> vect.open("r")
>>> vect.table.columns.add(test_raster_name,'double precision')
>>> vect.table.conn.commit()
>>> test_raster_name in vect.table.columns
True
>>> get_raster_for_points(vect, ele, column=test_raster_name, region=region)
True
>>> vect.table.filters.select('value', test_raster_name)
Filters('SELECT value, Utils_test_raster FROM test_vect_2;')
>>> cur = vect.table.execute()
>>> r = cur.fetchall()
>>> r[0]                                        # doctest: +ELLIPSIS
(10.0, 1.0)
>>> r[1]                                        # doctest: +ELLIPSIS
(12.0, 1.0)
>>> remove('test_vect_2','vect')
