#2 Updated by Giovanni Manghi over 9 years ago

Status changed from Open to Feedback
Resolution set to up/downstream

There is nothing wrong in Processing with this module. In SAGA 2.1.4 there are only a few new parameters and this is the new description file

the problem is that this module SAGA does not creates any output.

This:

saga_cmd io_gdal -TRANSFORM -INTERPOL 0 -GRIDS "mdt.sgrd" -FILES "mdt.tif"

imports correctly the raster in the SAGA data model, but then

saga_cmd statistics_grid "Statistics for Grids" -GRIDS "mdt.sgrd" -PCTL_VAL 50 -MEAN "MEAN.tif.sgrd"

do not create any output and do not give any error.

#3 Updated by Giovanni Manghi over 9 years ago

Status changed from Feedback to Closed

The description has been updated, now is a SAGA issue.

Could you please open a ticket upstream? Thanks.

for some reason I'm unable to login on sourceforge and file a ticket there.

with the command above you should see an error: "no grids in selection". The reason is that the tool requires at least two input grids in order to calculate cell statistics. For a test you can simply provide the input grid two times:

saga_cmd statistics_grid "Statistics for Grids" -GRIDS "mdt.sgrd;mdt.sgrd" -MEAN "MEAN.tif.sgrd"

see link above

no such error message in the saga command line output

saga_cmd statistics_grid "Statistics for Grids" -GRIDS "mdt.sgrd;mdt.sgrd" -MEAN "MEAN.tif.sgrd"

see link above

so there is nothing to fix: the processing module already allows choose multiple raster inputs (and is you do it works). There is no way (as far as I know) to force two, or at least two, but this is another issue.

The command is still not working properly, as the user should be forced to send the correct input. Please do not close it.

see #12580

Please do not close it.

the module works if you choose at least two raster inputs, as you suggests. The issue is the missing check for the minimum number of inputs, but this does not mean that this module is not working because of a wrong definition. An additional (mandatory) raster input cannot be used as workaround because this SAGA module do not allow it, the only possible input option is a single grid list
