Processing: GRASS: `r.viewshed` fails

Description

The command fails. Previously it was working fine. From the log it might be an upstream issue, or a consequence of a wrong param (refraction is new).
GRASS 7.0.5-2 here.

Default region was updated to the new projection, but if you have multiple mapsets `g.region -d` should be run in each to update the region from the default

ATTENZIONE: East-west resolution does not equal north-south resolution. The viewshed computation assumes the cells are square, so in this case this may result in innacuracies.

History

#1 Updated by Victor Olaya over 7 years ago

It seems it cannot find the raster layer for the viewshed algorithm, but r.external seems to have created it.

Any more info you can provide?

#2 Updated by Paolo Cavallini over 7 years ago

Checked again, I'm a bit lost here. Any suggestion what can I check?
Coords seem inverted here:
g.region n=4924820.77 s=4678320.77 e=1771747.23103 w=1554747.23103 res=100.0<code> <code>r.viewshed input=tmp1481281549583 coordinates="1621030.348,4879297.180" observer_elevation="1.75" but I tried swapping x,y, same result. In /tmp I find empty dirs. Thanks.

#3 Updated by Giovanni Manghi over 7 years ago

  • Resolution set to up/downstream
  • Status changed from Open to Closed

An upstream ticket must be filed.

This module in GRASS 7.* under Linux crashes when running against a raster imported with r.external. Works ok on Windows and against raster imported with r.in.gdal (that is not the case anymore in Processing).

#4 Updated by Markus Neteler over 7 years ago

I have created a test case and filed an upstream ticket at
