EXAMPLES

To calculate mean pixel attribute index on map my_map, using my_conf configuration file and saving results in my_out file run:
r.li.padcv map=my_map conf=my_conf output=my_out

NOTES

Do not use absolute path names for output files. They are raster if moving window disposition was selected, otherwise they are in ~/.r.li/output folder.
If input raster is not full of null values r.li.padcv returns a value >=0 that is PADcv.
If input raster is full of null values r.li.padcv returns -1.
If you want to have null values instead run
r.null setnull=-1 map=my_map
after index calculation.
