NAME

dcorrelate.sh - Graphically displays the correlation among from two to four raster map layers in the active frame on the graphics monitor.
(GRASS Shell Script)

SYNOPSIS

dcorrelate.sh layer1 layer2 [layer3 [layer4]]

DESCRIPTION

dcorrelate.sh is a C-shell (csh(1)) script that graphically displays the results of an r.stats run on two raster map layers. This shell script is useful for highlighting the correlation (or lack of it) among data layers (scattergram).

The results are displayed in the active display frame on the user's graphics monitor. dcorrelate.sh erases the active frame before displaying results.

OPTIONS

Parameters:

layer1 layer2 [layer3 [layer4]]
The names of from two to four existing raster map layers to be included in the correlation.

NOTES

This is a shell script that uses r.stats and the UNIX awk command to calculate the correlation among data layers, and uses d.text and d.graph to display the results.

If three or four map layers are specified, the correlation among each combination of two data layers is displayed.

This command is written for /bin/csh. If your system doesn't support this shell, don't install this script.

FILES

This program is simply a shell script. Users are encouraged to make their own shell script programs using similar techniques. See $GISBASE/scripts/dcorrelate.sh.
