## DESCRIPTION

v.hull computes the convex hull of a vector points map and outputs the convex hull polygon in a vector area map. The convex hull or convex envelope for an object or a set of objects is the minimal convex set containing the given objects. This module is creating a vector polygon containing all vector points of the input map.
