16 tory=name [title=string] [description=string] [location=string]
17 [--overwrite] [--help] [--verbose] [--quiet] [--ui]
18
19 Flags:
20 -e
21 Extend location extents based on new dataset
22
23 -o
24 Override projection check (use current location’s projection)
25 Assume that the dataset has same projection as the current location
26
27 -c
28 Create the location specified by the "location" parameter and exit.
29 Do not import the space time vector datasets.
30
31 --overwrite
32 Allow output files to overwrite existing files
33
34 --help
35 Print usage summary
36
37 --verbose
38 Verbose module output
39
40 --quiet
41 Quiet module output
42
43 --ui
44 Force launching GUI dialog

46 Parameters:
47 input=name [required]
48 Name of input file
49
50 output=name [required]
51 Name of the output space time vector dataset
52
53 basename=string
54 Basename of the new generated output maps
55 A numerical suffix separated by an underscore will be attached to
56 create a unique identifier
57
58 directory=name [required]
59 Path to the extraction directory
60
61 title=string
62 Title of the new space time dataset
63
64 description=string
65 Description of the new space time dataset
66
67 location=string
68 Create a new location and import the data into it. Do not run this
69 module in parallel or interrupt it when a new location should be
70 created
71
73 t.vect.import imports a space time vector dataset archive that was ex‐
74 ported with t.vect.export.
75
77 Optionally a base map name can be provided to avoid that existing vec‐
78 tor maps are overwritten by the map names that are used in the STRDS
79 archive.
80
81 The directory is used as work directory in case of import but can also
82 be used as a data directory when using GML for the data exchange.
83
85 In this example, five vector maps are created and registered in a sin‐
86 gle space time vector dataset named random_locations. Each vector map
87 represents random locations within the boundary of the state taken at 1
88 month intervals. The space time dataset is then exported and re-im‐
89 ported.
