This page explains how to work with external data in GRASS 7.

(to be expanded)

Raster data

External raster data can be linked via r.external. List of supported formats can be determined by

r.external -f

To link file-based data formats, eg. GeoTiff

r.external input=ncrast/urban.tif output=urban

Vector data

External vector data can be linked via v.external. List of supported formats can be determined by

v.external -f

To link file-based data formats, eg. ESRI Shapefile

 v.external dsn=ncshape/ layer=railroads output=railroads

Assuming that 'railroads.shp' is located in directory 'ncshape'.

Using wxGUI
