SYNOPSIS

       v.report
       v.report help
       v.report [-rs] map=string  [layer=integer]  option=string  [units=string]   [--verbose]  [--quiet]

   Flags:

       --verbose
           Verbose module output

       --quiet
           Quiet module output

   Parameters:
       map=string
           Name of input vector map

       layer=integer
           Layer number
           Default: 1

       option=string
           Value to calculate
           Options: area,length,coor

       units=string
           mi(les),f(eet),me(ters),k(ilometers),a(cres),h(ectares),p(ercent)
           Options: mi,miles,f,feet,me,meters,k,kilometers,a,acres,h,hectares,p,percent

DESCRIPTION

       v.report  generates  a  table  showing the area present in each of the categories of a user-selected data
       layer.

       Area is given in hectares, square meters, and square kilometers.  If the units option is  used,  area  is
       given in acres, square feet, and square miles.

       Feet  and  acre  units are always reported in their common versions (i.e. the International Foot, exactly
       5280 feet in a mile), even when the location's standard map unit is the US Survey foot.

       v.report works on the full map data; therefore, the current region is ignored. If you wish  to  spatially
       limit  the statistics, a map subset must be created with v.in.region and v.overlay, and then run v.report
       on the new map.

EXAMPLE

       North Carolina sample dataset:
       v.report zipcodes_wake option=area units=hectares
        In the output, there is an extra column added containing the results.
