DESCRIPTION

44       r.pack collects raster map elements and support  files  and  compressed
45       them using gzip algorithm for copying. The resulting packed file can be
46       afterwards unpacked within a GRASS GIS session by r.unpack.  Since  the
47       selected  raster  map  is not exported but natively stored, the current
48       region is not respected. Hence r.pack stores the entire raster map.
49

NOTES

51       By default, the name of the pack file is determined from the input  pa‐
52       rameter.  Optionally a different name can be given by output parameter.
53       Currently only 2D raster maps are supported.
54

EXAMPLE

56       Pack up the entire raster map aspect into aspect.pack file:
57       r.pack input=aspect
58       The packed raster map file  aspect.pack can afterwards be unpacked by
59       r.unpack input=aspect.pack
