DESCRIPTION

This module creates a raster map containing concentric rings around a given point. The cell values are increasing linear from the center point to outer rings. Minimum and maximum radius can be selected. Optionally a "donut" ring can be created to use as (binary) filter for i.ifft inverse Fourier transform (apply filter with r.mask).

EXAMPLES

Generate a circle at current map center with a radius of 300m:
      EASTCENTER=`g.region -c |  awk ' /region center easting:/ { print $4 }'`
      NORTHCENTER=`g.region -c | awk ' /region center northing:/ { print $4 }'`
      r.circle -b out=circle coordinate=$EASTCENTER,$NORTHCENTER max=300
