DESCRIPTION

r.series makes each output cell value a function of the values assigned to the corresponding cells in the input raster map layers. Following methods are available:

NOTES

With -n flag, any cell for which any of the corresponding input cells are NULL is automatically set to NULL (NULL propagation). The aggregate function is not called, so all methods behave this way with respect to the -n flag.

Without -n flag, the complete list of inputs for each cell (including NULLs) is passed to the aggregate function. Individual aggregates can handle data as they choose. Mostly, they just compute the aggregate over the non-NULL values, producing a NULL result only if all inputs are NULL.

The min_raster and max_raster methods generate a map with the number of the raster map that holds the minimum/maximum value of the time-series. The numbering starts at 0 up to n for the first and the last raster listed in input=, respectively.

If the range= option is given, any values which fall outside that range will be treated as if they were NULL. The range parameter can be set to low,high thresholds: values outside of this range are treated as NULL (i.e., they will be ignored by most aggregates, or will cause the result to be NULL if -n is given). The low,high thresholds are floating point, so use -inf or inf for a single threshold (e.g., range=0,inf to ignore negative values, or range=-inf,-200.4 to ignore values above -200.4).

EXAMPLES

Using r.series with wildcards:
r.series input="`g.mlist pattern='insitu_data.*' sep=,`"
    output=insitu_data.stddev method=stddev

Note the g.mlist script also supports regular expressions for selecting map names.

Example for multiple aggregates to be computed in one run (3 resulting aggregates from two input maps):

r.series in=one,two out=result_avg,res_slope,result_count meth=sum,slope,count
