Parameters:

map=name [required]

Name of vector map
Or data source for direct OGR access

organization=phrase

Organization where vector map was created

date=datestring

Date of vector map digitization (e.g., "15 Mar 2007")

person=phrase

Person who created vector map

map_name=phrase

Vector map title

map_date=datestring

Date when the source map was originally produced

scale=integer

Vector map scale number (e.g., 24000)

zone=integer

Vector map projection zone

threshold=float

Vector map digitizing threshold number (e.g., 0.5)

comment=phrase

Text to append to the comment line of the map’s metadata file

cmdhist=command

Command line to store into vector map history file (used for vector scripts)

DESCRIPTION

v.support is used to set/update vector map metadata. While GRASS GIS typically generates these metadata entries automatically, v.support allows users to manually edit them when necessary.

EXAMPLE

# update scale to 1:24000
v.support myvectmap scale=24000
# update organization
v.support myvectmap organization="OSGeo labs"
v.info myvectmap
