PROGRAM:

NAME


r.buffer.lowmem - Creates a raster map showing buffer zones surrounding cells that
contain non-NULL category values.
This is the low-memory alternative to the classic r.buffer module.

KEYWORDS


raster, buffer

SYNOPSIS


r.buffer.lowmem
r.buffer.lowmem --help
r.buffer.lowmem [-z] input=name output=name distances=float[,float,...] [units=string]
[--overwrite] [--help] [--verbose] [--quiet] [--ui]

Flags:
-z
Ignore zero (0) data cells instead of NULL cells

--overwrite
Allow output files to overwrite existing files

--help
Print usage summary

--verbose
Verbose module output

--quiet
Quiet module output

--ui
Force launching GUI dialog

Parameters:
input=name [required]
Name of input raster map

output=name [required]
Name for output raster map

distances=float[,float,...] [required]
Distance zone(s)

units=string
Units of distance
Options: meters, kilometers, feet, miles, nautmiles
Default: meters

DESCRIPTION


r.buffer.lowmem creates a new raster map showing buffer (a.k.a. "distance" or "proximity")
zones around all cells that contain non-NULL category values in an existing raster map.
The distances of buffer zones from cells with non-zero category values are user-chosen.

This is the low-memory alternative to the classic r.buffer module. It is much slower than
the classic version, but will run on massive raster maps without using a lot of RAM. If
your raster map is larger than 32000x32000 cells on a system with 1 GB of RAM, or larger
than 90000x90000 cells on a system with 8 GB of RAM, consider using this module.

For more info see manual of r.buffer.

EXAMPLE


In the following example, the buffer zones would be (in the default units of meters):
0-100, 101-200, 201-300, 301-400 and 401-500.
r.buffer.lowmem input=roads output=roads.buf distances=100,200,300,400,500
Result:
r.category input=roads.buf
1 distances calculated from these locations
2 0-100 meters
3 100-200 meters
4 200-300 meters
5 300-400 meters
6 400-500 meters
