'''Q:''' How about self-intersecting lines and boundaries?
 
'''A:''' In the GRASS topological model self-intersecting lines are allowed, self-intersecting boundaries are not.
Self-intersecting lines are ok e.g. for {{cmd|v.net}} modules, e.g. to represent a bridge of a secondary road over a highway.
 
Note: There are some modules that do not like self-intersecting lines, e.g with {{cmd|v.buffer}} problems are expected.

Q: How can I patch to fitting area maps with have been digitized separately and correct the topology? I observe that the shared polygon boundaries do not perfectly match...

Polygon vector map with topology problems

A: You can use v.clean for this.
