DESCRIPTION

       Creates a display file from an  existing  grid3  file  according  to  specified  threshold
       levels.   The display file is a display list of polygons that represent isosurfaces of the
       data volume.  If specific levels are given, additional optional  parameters  are  ignored.
       Min  or  max  may  be used alone or together to specify a sub-range of the data.  The step
       parameter is given precedence over tnum.

   Flags:
       -q
           Suppress progress report & min/max information

       -f
           Use flat shading rather than gradient

   Parameters:
       grid3
           Name of an existing 3D raster map

       dspf
           Name of output display file

       levels
           List of thresholds for isosurfaces

       min
           Minimum isosurface level

       max
           Maximum isosurface level

       step
           Positive increment between isosurface levels

       tnum
           Number of isosurface threshold levels
           Default: 7

Example:

       With grid3 data (phdata) in the range 3-7, we only want to see isosurface values  for  the
       range 4-6.  Any of these commands will produce the same results:
       r3.mkdspf phdata dspf=iso min=4.0 max=6.0 tnum=5
       r3.mkdspf phdata dspf=iso levels=4.0,4.5,5.0,5.5,6.0
       r3.mkdspf phdata dspf=iso min=4.0 max=6.0 step=0.5

NOTE

       Currently  the  grid3  file  must  be  in  the user’s mapset since the display files being
       created are specific to particular grid3 files and  are  contained  in  directories  under
       them.   We should create a mechanism where users may make display files from others’ grid3
       files without having to copy them to their mapset.
