DESCRIPTION

       r.in.srtm  imports  SRTM  HGT  files  into GRASS.  SRTM Version 1 and improved Version 2 data sets can be
       downloaded from NASA at this site:
       http://dds.cr.usgs.gov/srtm/

       Gap-filled SRTM Version 3 data can be downloaded from USGS at this site:
       https://e4ftl01.cr.usgs.gov/MEASURES/SRTMGL3.003/2000.02.11/

NOTES

       SRTM tiles are of 1 degree by 1 degree size. The SRTM filename contains the coordinates  which  refer  to
       the  center  of  the  lower left pixel (e.g., N51E010: lower left cell center at 10E, 51N). To identify a
       tile name, a grid can be easily visualized by d.grid:
       d.grid size=1
       To import TOPEX/SRTM30 PLUS data, use r.in.bin.
