DESCRIPTION

       The  module  t.vect.observe.strds  is  used  to observe specific locations in a space time
       raster dataset over a period of time using vector points.  The first input is a vector map
       layer  with  vector  points. The second input is one or several space time raster datasets
       (STRDS) that should be sampled over time at the vector point  positions.  The  space  time
       raster  dataset  will  be  sampled  over  its whole temporal extent (from start to end). A
       column name must be specified for each input space time raster dataset.

       The result is a new space time vector dataset that contains  a  single  (new)  vector  map
       which  links  to as many time-stamped attribute tables as raster map layers are present in
       the input space time raster dataset.  Hence, for each time step in the space  time  raster
       dataset  a new attribute table is created. The GRASS GIS Temporal Framework allows to time
       stamp attribute tables that can be linked to a single vector map layer.

       The module v.what.rast is used internally for sampling the time stamped raster map layers.
       All  sampled  values of a single time stamped raster map layer are written into a new time
       stamped attribute table.

       Use t.vect.db.select to print attribute values of the space time vector dataset to stdout.

EXAMPLE

       The example shows how to create a space time vector dataset and a  vector  layer  starting
       from a point vector and a space time raster dataset:
       t.vect.observe.strds input=precip_30ynormals_3d strds=tempmean_monthly \
                            output=precip_stations vect=precip_stations_monthly \
                            columns=month
       t.info precip_stations type=stvds
