GRASS graphical digitising tool should be graphical front-end for new v.edit module. v.edit should be CML tool for
* creating new vector file, eventualy overwrite existing ones '''create'''
* adding new features (points, lines, polylines, centroids) '''add'''
* removenig old features (with database record) '''delete'''
* moving whole feature '''move'''
* moving specified vertex '''vertex'''
* adding new vertext to line/boundary '''break'''
* spliting line/boundary completely '''split'''
* removing vertex '''straight'''
* selecting features '''select'''
* merging two lines/boundaries together '''merge'''
* IMHO funtionality for adding 'z' values to vector contour lines should be back too


v.edit should accept feature selection by:
Quick overview:
* bbox '''bbox'''
* Editing of vector objects:
* catlist '''cats'''
** Add, Break, Copy, Connect, Convert Type, Delete, Flip direction, Merge, Move, Select lines by query, Snap, Split
* single coordinates '''coords'''
* Cats:
** Copy, Delete, Z-Bulk Labeling
* Vertex:
** Insert, Delete, Move


==Examples of actions==

GUI vector digitizer

New digitizer

Quick overview:

  • Editing of vector objects:
    • Add, Break, Copy, Connect, Convert Type, Delete, Flip direction, Merge, Move, Select lines by query, Snap, Split
  • Cats:
    • Copy, Delete, Z-Bulk Labeling
  • Vertex:
    • Insert, Delete, Move


Old digitizer

  • TCL/TK-based old fashioned v.digit module
  • no longer maintained

Command Line (CLI) vector digitizer

See manual page of v.edit.

Raster digitizer

The r.in.poly ASCII format is almost the same as the standard vector ASCII format. So the new digitizer should be able to output for both, and then we have a replacement for r.digit too!
