r.transect - Outputs raster map layer values lying along user defined transect line(s).

       Michael Shapiro, U.S. Army Construction Engineering Research Laboratory

r.transect outputs, in ASCII, the values in a raster  map  which  lie  along  one  or  more  user-defined
       transect lines.  The transects are described by their starting coordinates, azimuth, and distance.

       The  line  parameter  is a definition of (each) transect line, specified by the geographic coordinates of
       its starting point (easting,northing), the angle and direction of its travel (azimuth), and its distance
       (distance).

       The azimuth is an angle, in degrees, measured to the east of north.  The distance is in map units (meters
       for a metered database, like UTM).

       The null parameter can optionally be set to change the character string representing null values.

r.transect  - Outputs raster map layer values lying along user defined transect line(s).

       This program is a front-end to the r.profile program.  It simply converts the azimuth and distance to  an
       ending  coordinate and then runs r.profile.  There once were width= and result=raw|median|average options
       which are not currently implemented.
