NAME

       v.out.svg  - Exports a vector map to SVG file.

KEYWORDS

       vector, export, output

SYNOPSIS

       v.out.svg
       v.out.svg --help
       v.out.svg      input=name       [layer=string]       output=name     type=string      [precision=integer]
       [attribute=name[,name,...]]   [--overwrite]  [--help]  [--verbose]  [--quiet]  [--ui]

   Flags:
       --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 vector map
           Or data source for direct OGR access

       layer=string
           Layer number or name (’-1’ for all layers)
           A single vector map can be connected to multiple database tables. This number determines which  table
           to use. When used with direct OGR access this is the layer name.
           Default: -1

       output=name [required]
           Name for SVG output file

       type=string [required]
           Output type
           Defines which feature-type will be extracted
           Options: poly, line, point
           Default: poly

       precision=integer
           Coordinate precision
           Default: 6

       attribute=name[,name,...]
           Attribute(s) to include in output SVG

DESCRIPTION

       v.out.svg converts GRASS vector data to SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) code notation.  In particular, it

           •   converts  GRASS  line,  boundary,  area,  point,  centroid  objects  to  SVG <path />, <circle />
               elements,

           •   reduces coordinate precision in SVG-output to save bandwidth,

           •   extracts GRASS attributes to gg:name="value" attributes.
       The precision parameter controls the number of decimals for coordinates output  (precision=0  corresponds
       to integer precision in the output SVG file).

EXAMPLE

       Export polygons from GRASS vector map soils (Spearfish sample data) to SVG format:
       v.out.svg input=soils output=/tmp/output.svg type=poly

       Export  lines  from  GRASS  vector  map  t_hydro  (Spearfish  sample  data) to SVG format, set coordinate
       precision to 0:
       v.out.svg input=t_hydro output=/tmp/output.svg type=line precision=0

       Export points from GRASS vector map archsites (Spearfish sample data) to SVG  format,  include  attribute
       str1 (name):
       v.out.svg input=archsites output=/tmp/output.svg type=point precision=0 attrib=str1
