NAME

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

KEYWORDS

       vector, export

SYNOPSIS

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

   Parameters:
       input=name
           Name of input vector map

       output=name
           Name for SVG output file

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

       precision=integer
           Coordinate precision
           Default: 6

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

       layer=integer
           Layer number
           A single vector map  can  be  connected  to  multiple  database  tables.  This  number
           determines which table to use.
           Default: 1

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  ,
                     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
