NAME

       v.out.pov  - Converts GRASS x,y,z points to POV-Ray x,z,y format.

KEYWORDS

       vector, export, output

SYNOPSIS

       v.out.pov
       v.out.pov --help
       v.out.pov    input=name     [layer=string]     [type=string[,string,...]]    output=name    [size=string]
       [zmod=string]   [objmod=string]   [--overwrite]  [--help]  [--verbose]  [--quiet]  [--ui]

   Flags:
       --overwrite
           Allow output files to overwrite existing files

       --help
           Print usage summary

       --verbose
           Verbose module output

       --quiet
           Quiet module output

       --ui
           Force launching GUI dialog

   Parameters:
       input=name [required]
           Name of input vector map
           Or data source for direct OGR access

       layer=string
           Layer number or name (’-1’ for all layers)
           A single vector map can be connected to multiple database tables. This number determines which  table
           to use. When used with direct OGR access this is the layer name.
           Default: -1

       type=string[,string,...]
           Input feature type
           Options: point, line, boundary, centroid, area, face, kernel
           Default: point,line,area,face

       output=name [required]
           Name for output POV file

       size=string
           Radius of sphere for points and tube for lines
           May be also variable, e.g. grass_r.
           Default: 10

       zmod=string
           This string is appended to each z coordinate. Examples: ’*10’, ’+1000’, ’*10+100’, ’*exaggeration’

       objmod=string
           Object modifier (OBJECT_MODIFIER in POV-Ray documentation)
           Example: "pigment { color red 0 green 1 blue 0 }"

DESCRIPTION

       v.out.pov converts GRASS vector data to POV-Ray format (www.povray.com)

EXAMPLE

       v.out.pov input=vector3d output=vector3d.pov objmod="pigment { color red 0 green 1 blue 0 }"
       The generated file can be included in an existing .pov file with the following statement:
       #include "vector3d.pov"
