DESCRIPTION

56       r.quantile  computes  quantiles in a manner suitable for use with large
57       amounts of data. It is using two passes.
58

EXAMPLE

60       Calculation of elevation quantiles (printed to standard-out):
61       g.region raster=elevation -p
62       r.quantile input=elevation percentiles=0.1,1,10,25,50,75,90,99,99.9
63       The output of r.quantile can be used for quantile classification:
64       g.region raster=elevation -p
65       r.quantile elevation quantiles=5 -r --quiet | r.recode elevation \
66                  out=elev_quant5 rules=-
