    24243. Fire up Grass. Select a location in lat/long projection using WGS84 datum (create one if none available), make a note of the selected location and mapset names.

    26 4. Import the data file:
     264. Import the data file.

    2728For ASTER data:

    36 '''For multiple tiles'''
     37'''Importing and patching multiple tiles'''

    3839If the data you have downloaded spans multiple tiles, then you will need to run the above but inside a for loop like so:
    … …  
    8990Use a conversion utility (eg see the spreadsheet at [http://www.uwgb.edu/dutchs/UsefulData/UTMFormulas.HTM#Spreadsheet http://www.uwgb.edu/dutchs/UsefulData/UTMFormulas.HTM#Spreadsheet]) to determine the boundaries of the target flight in meters within the selected UTM zone. If the flight spans two or more UTM zones, you will have to calculate the offsets appropriate to work out the east and west boundaries of the area. eg. If western boundary is zone 32 and eastern boundary is zone 33, for eastern value use zone 32, add 750000 to value from spreadsheet to find eastings relative to zone 32 bound.

    91 7. Set active region to calculated eastings/northings using
     92 - Set active region to calculated eastings/northings using
     93   {{{
     94   g.region n=<north val> s=<south val> e=<east val> w=<west val> res=50
     95   }}}
     96   For ASTER res=30

     98 - Use r.proj to convert from lat/long to UTM:
     99   {{{
     100   r.proj input=<MAP_NAME> location=<lat/long_location> mapset=<lat/long_mapset> output=<output_map_name>
     101   }}}
     102   Where <MAP_NAME> is what we created in step 4.
    96103
    97 For ASTER please put res=30

    99 8. Use r.proj to convert from lat/long to UTM:
    100 {{{
    101 r.proj input=<MAP_NAME> location=<lat/long_location> mapset=<lat/long_mapset> output=<output_map_name>
    102 }}}
    103 
    104 Where <MAP_NAME> is what we created in step 4.
    105 
    106 9. If r.proj gives an error saying that the input map is outside the bounds of the current region, go back to step 6 and check your numbers

    109107'''Other method:'''
    110 Set the northings/eastings to something very large e.g.
    111108
    112 {{{

     112 }}}
     113 For ASTER res=30
    115114
    116 For ASTER please put res=30
     115 - Use r.proj to convert from lat/long to UTM:

    121 }}}
     121 - Set the new region
     122 {{{
     123 g.region rast=<output_map_name>
     124 }}}
    122125
    123 Where <MAP_NAME> is what we created in step 4.

    127 Set the new region
    128 
    129 {{{
    130 g.region rast=<output_map_name>
    131 }}}

    133 You can run

     126To run a GUI and check whether the DEM covers the correct area, or to make the area smaller, use:
    135127{{{

    138130
    139 To run a GUI and check whether the DEM covers the correct area, or to make the area smaller.

    141 10. Output ASCII DEM from converted map as normal (see [wiki:Processing/NextMapDEMs Creation of DEMs from NextMap data])
     13110. To output an ASCII DEM from the converted map, the instructions are the same as [wiki:Processing/NextMapDEMs those on the NextMap page]. Follow the instructions from about half-way down. Make sure to covert your DEM to an az-style header.
    142132
    14313311. To elevate the SRTM/ASTER DEM to the WGS84 spheroid (as is required for LiDAR deliveries and LiDAR DEM patching) see [wiki:Processing/DEM2WGS84 Elevate an SRTM/ASTER DEM to the WGS84 spheroid].
     134
     13512. When your DEM is finished, place it in ~arsf/dems and link it from within the individual projects. Make sure it's origin is contained in the file name e.g. <PROJECT_NAME>-ASTER.dem.
