Names of 2-30 input raster maps

output=name [required]
Name for output raster map

DESCRIPTION

r.cross creates an output raster map layer representing all unique combinations of
category values in the raster input layers (input=name,name,name, ...). At least two, but
not more than ten, input map layers must be specified. The user must also specify a name
to be assigned to the output raster map layer created by r.cross.

OPTIONS

The program will be run non-interactively if the user specifies the names of between 2-10
raster map layers be used as input, and the name of a raster map layer to hold program
output.

With the -z flag zero data values are not crossed. This means that if a zero category
value occurs in any input data layer, the combination is assigned to category zero in the
resulting map layer, even if other data layers contain non-zero data. In the example
given above, use of the -z option would cause 3 categories to be generated instead of 5.

If the -z flag is not specified, then map layer combinations in which not all category
values are zero will be assigned a unique category value in the resulting map layer.

Category values in the new output map layer will be the cross-product of the category
values from these existing input map layers.

EXAMPLE

For example, suppose that, using two raster map layers, the following combinations occur:
map1 map2
___________
0 1
0 2
1 1
1 2
2 4
r.cross would produce a new raster map layer with 5 categories:
map1 map2 output
____________________
0 1 1
0 2 2
1 1 3
1 2 4
2 4 5
Note: The actual category value assigned to a particular combination in the result map
layer is dependent on the order in which the combinations occur in the input map layer
data and can be considered essentially random. The example given here is illustrative
only.

SUPPORT FILES

The category file created for the output raster map layer describes the combinations of
input map layer category values which generated each category. In the above example, the
category labels would be:
category category
value label
______________________________
1 layer1(0) layer2(1)
2 layer1(0) layer2(2)
3 layer1(1) layer2(1)
4 layer1(1) layer2(2)
5 layer1(2) layer2(4)
A random color table is also generated for the output map layer.

NOTES

When run non-interactively, r.cross will not protect existing files in the user’s mapset.
If the user specifies an output file name that already exists in his mapset, the existing
file will be overwritten by the new r.cross output.
