NAME
t.rast.gapfill - Replaces gaps in a space time raster dataset with interpolated raster maps.

KEYWORDS
temporal, interpolation, raster, time, no-data filling

SYNOPSIS
t.rast.gapfill
t.rast.gapfill --help
t.rast.gapfill [-t] input=name [where=sql_query] basename=string [suffix=string] [nprocs=integer] [--help] [--verbose] [--quiet] [--ui]

  Flags:

-t
    Assign the space time raster dataset start and end time to the output map

--help
    Print usage summary

--verbose
    Verbose module output

--quiet
    Quiet module output

--ui
    Force launching GUI dialog

  Parameters:

input=name [required]
    Name of the input space time raster dataset

where=sql_query
    WHERE conditions of SQL statement without ’where’ keyword used in the temporal GIS framework
    Example: start_time > ’2001-01-01 12:30:00’

basename=string [required]
    Basename of the new generated output maps
    A numerical suffix separated by an underscore will be attached to create a unique identifier

suffix=string
    Suffix to add at basename: set ’gran’ for granularity, ’time’ for the full time format, ’num’ for numerical suffix with a specific number of digits (default %05)
    Default: gran

nprocs=integer
    Number of interpolation processes to run in parallel
    Default: 1

DESCRIPTION
t.rast.gapfill fills temporal gaps in space time raster datasets using linear interpolation. Temporal all gaps will be detected in the input space time raster dataset automatically. The predecessor and successor maps of the gaps will be identified and used to linear interpolate the raster map between them.

NOTES
This module uses r.series.interp to perform the interpolation for each gap independently. Hence several interpolation processes can be run in parallel.

Each gap is re-sampled by the space time raster dataset granularity. Therefore several time stamped raster map layers will be interpolated if the gap is larger than the STRDS granularity.

EXAMPLES
In this example we will create 3 raster maps and register them in the temporal database an then in the newly created space time raster dataset. There are gaps of one and two day size between the raster maps. The values of the maps are chosen so that the interpolated values can be estimated. We expect one map with a value of 2 for the first gap and two maps (values 3.666 and 4.333) for the second gap after interpolation.
