SYNOPSIS

       r3.out.bin
       r3.out.bin --help
       r3.out.bin  [-rdi]  input=name  output=name   [null=float]   bytes=integer  [order=string]
       [--overwrite]  [--help]  [--verbose]  [--quiet]  [--ui]

   Flags:
       -r
           Switch the row order in output from north->south to south->north

       -d
           Switch the depth order in output from bottom->top to top->bottom

       -i
           Write data as integer

       --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 3D raster map

       output=name [required]
           Name for output file

       null=float
           Value to write out for null
           Default: 0

       bytes=integer [required]
           Number of bytes per cell in binary file
           Options: 1, 2, 4, 8

       order=string
           Output byte order
           Options: big, little, native, swap
           Default: native

DESCRIPTION

       The r3.out.bin program exports a GRASS 3D raster map to a binary array  file.  Optionally,
       output  can  be  send  to  standard  output  (stdout)  for  direct input (pipe) into other
       applications. Data is exported according to the original  GRASS  3D  raster  type  (float,
       double).

NOTES

       The  write  order  of  the  rows (north->south to south->north) and the write order of the
       depths (bottom->top to top->bottom) can be switched.

       The region parameters are printed to stderr when setting  the  verbose  flag.   Export  of
       little and big endian byte order is supported.

       Have  a  look  at  r3.out.ascii  manual  page that describes the internal layout of the 3D
       raster maps and the supported row and depth switch options.

Examples

       Have a look at the examples in r3.in.bin.
