DESCRIPTION

38       r.in.srtm imports SRTM hgt files into GRASS.  SRTM  data  sets  can  be
39       downloaded  from NASA at this FTP site (Version 1 and the improved Ver‐
40       sion 2):
41       ftp://e0srp01u.ecs.nasa.gov/srtm/

NOTES

44       SRTM tiles are of 1 degree by 1 degree size. The SRTM filename contains
45       the  coordinates  which  refer  to  the  center of the lower left pixel
46       (e.g., N51E010: lower left cell center at 10E, 51N). To itentify a tile
47       name, a grid can be easily visualized in the GRASS monitor:
48       d.grid size=1
49        To import TOPEX/SRTM30 PLUS data, use r.in.bin.
