r.out.bin - Exports a GRASS raster to a binary array.

       This program is derived from r.out.ascii with a few modifications.
       Author: Bob Covill

       The r.out.bin program exports a GRASS raster map to a binary array file. Optionally, output can  be  sent
       to  standard  output (stdout) for direct input (pipe) into other applications. Data is exported according
       to the original GRASS raster type (e.g. float). If the "-i"  flag  is  specified,  an  integer  array  is
       output. The region parameters are printed to stderr.

r.out.bin  - Exports a GRASS raster to a binary array.

       With the -h flag, data can be directly used by GMT as Grid Format 1 (float) or 2 (short). For example:
       r.out.bin -h input=grass.raster output=new.grd
       grdinfo new.grd=1 (if float)

       Exported data can be piped directly into the GMT program xyz2grd.
       r.out.bin input=grass.raster output=- | xyz2grd -R....  -ZTLf -
       The example uses the GMT program xyz2grd with the -ZTLf flag indicating that a float array was output.
