## NAME

i.spectral - Displays spectral response at user specified locations in group or images.

## KEYWORDS

imagery, querying, raster, multispectral

## SYNOPSIS

i.spectral
i.spectral --help
i.spectral [-cgt] [group=name] [subgroup=name] [raster=name[,name,...]] coordinates=east,north[,east,north,...] [output=name] [format=string] [--overwrite] [--help] [--verbose] [--quiet] [--ui]

### Flags:

-c
  Show sampling coordinates instead of numbering in the legend (valid for -g flag)
-g
  Use gnuplot for display
-t
  output to text file
--overwrite
  Allow output files to overwrite existing files
--help
  Print usage summary
--verbose
  Verbose module output
--quiet
  Quiet module output
--ui
  Force launching GUI dialog

### Parameters:

group=name
  Name of input imagery group
subgroup=name
  Name of input imagery subgroup
raster=name[,name,...]
  Name of input raster map(s)
coordinates=east,north[,east,north,...] [required]
  Coordinates
output=name
  Name for output image is valid for -g (or text file for -t flag)
format=string
  Graphics format for output file (valid for -g flag)
  Options: png, eps, svg
  Default: png

## DESCRIPTION

i.spectral displays spectral response at user specified locations in images.

## NOTES

This script requires the launch of one of the supported monitors (cairo, png, ps) or gnuplot to be installed.

## EXAMPLE

Analysis of LANDSAT TM7 channels (North Carolina dataset):

    g.region raster=lsat7_2002_10 -p
    i.spectral -g raster=lsat7_2002_10,lsat7_2002_20,lsat7_2002_30,lsat7_2002_40,lsat7_2002_50,lsat7_2002_70 \
               coordinates=636069,215440,637958,223393,633277,223605

Spectral plot of 3 different land cover types: (1) water, (2) green vegetation, and (3) highway

North Carolina sample dataset:

    g.region raster=lsat7_2002_10 -p
    LIST=`g.list type=raster pattern="lsat7_2002_[1-5,7]0" separator=","`
    d.mon start=cairo output=plot.png
    i.spectral raster=$LIST coordinates=637502.25,221744.25
    d.mon stop=cairo

This will search all LANDSAT map for 2002 but select only the B, G, R, NIR, and MIR channels.
