grdvolume - Calculating volume under a surface within a
contour
</PRE>
<H2>SYNOPSIS</H2><PRE>
<B>grdvolume</B> <I>grdfile</I> [ <B>-C</B><I>cval</I> or <B>-C</B><I>low/high/delta</I> ] [ <B>-L</B><I>base</I>
] [ <B>-R</B><I>west/east/south/north</I>[<B>r</B>] ] [ <B>-S</B>[<B>k</B>] ] [ <B>-T</B> ] [ <B>-V</B>[<B>l</B>]
] [ <B>-Z</B><I>fact</I>[/<I>delta</I>] ]
</PRE>
<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
<B>grdvolume</B> reads a 2-D binary grd file and calculates the
volume contained between the surface and the plane speci
fied by the given contour (or zero if not given). Alter
natively, specify a range of contours to be tried and <B>grd</B>
<B>volume</B> will determine the volume and area inside the con
tour for all contour values. The contour that produced the
maximum mean height (volume/area) is reported as well.
This feature may be used with <B><A HREF="grdfilter.html">grdfilter</A></B> in designing an
Optimal Robust Separator [<I>Wessel</I>, 1998].
<I>grdfile</I>
The name of the input 2-D binary grd file.
</PRE>
<H2>OPTIONS</H2><PRE>
No space between the option flag and the associated argu
ments.
<B>-C</B> find area and volume inside the <I>cval</I> contour.
Alternatively, search using all contours from <I>low</I>
to <I>high</I> in steps of <I>delta</I>. [Default returns entire
area and volume of grid].
<B>-L</B> Also add in the volume from the level of the con
tour down to <I>base</I> [Default base is contour].
<B>-S</B> Convert degrees to meters, append <B>k</B> for km [Default
is Cartesian].
<B>-T</B> Use curvature minimum rather than maximum height to
find best contour value (when contour search is
selected with <B>-C</B>).
<B>-R</B> <I>west,</I> <I>east,</I> <I>south,</I> and <I>north</I> specify the Region of
interest. To specify boundaries in degrees and min
utes [and seconds], use the dd:mm[:ss] format.
Append <B>r</B> if lower left and upper right map coordi
nates are given instead of wesn.
<B>-V</B> Selects verbose mode, which will send progress
reports to stderr [Default runs "silently"].
Append <B>l</B> to see all the results for each contour
level tested (when contour search has been
selected).
<I>fact</I>. [Default is no scaling]. (Numbers in <B>-C,</B> <B>-L</B>
refer to values after this scaling has occurred).
</PRE>
<H2>EXAMPLES</H2><PRE>
To determine the volume in km^3 under the <A HREF="surface.html">surface</A>
hawaii_topo.grd (height in km), try
grdvolume hawaii_topo.grd <B>-Sk</B>
To find the volume between the surface peaks.grd and the
contour z = 250, use
grdvolume peaks.grd <B>-Sk</B> <B>-C</B>250
To search for the contour, between 100 and 300 in steps of
10, that maximizes the ratio of volume to surface area for
the file peaks.grd, use
grdvolume peaks.grd <B>-Sk</B> <B>-C</B>100/300/10 > results.d
To see the areas and volumes for all the countours in the
previous example, try
grdvolume peaks.grd <B>-Sk</B> <B>-Vl</B> <B>-C</B>100/300/10 > results.d
