"result = expression"
The statement structure is similar to r.mapcalc, see r.mapcalc.
Where result represents the name of a space time dataset
(STDS)that will contain the result of the calculation that is given as
expression on the right side of the equality sign.
These expression can be any valid or nested combination of temporal
operations and functions that are provided by the temporal algebra.
The temporal algebra works with space time datasets of any type
(STRDS, STR3DS and STVDS). The algebra provides methods for map
selection from STDS based on their temporal relations. It is also
possible to temporally shift maps, to create temporal buffer and to
snap time instances to create a valid temporal topology. Furthermore
expressions can be nested and evaluated in conditional statements (if,
else statements). Within if-statements the algebra provides temporal
variables like start time, end time, day of year, time differences or
number of maps per time interval to build up conditions. These
operations can be assigned to space time datasets or to the results of
operations between space time datasets.
The type of the input space time datasets must be defined with the input parameter type. Possible options are STRDS, STVDS or STR3DS. The default is set to space time raster datasets (STRDS).
As default, topological relationships between space time datasets will be evaluated only temporal. Use the s flag to activate the additionally spatial topology evaluation.
The expression option must be passed as quoted
expression, for example:
t.select expression="C = A : B"
equals A ------ B ------ during A ---- B ------ contains A ------ B ---- starts A ---- B ------ started A ------ B ---- finishes A ---- B ------ finished A ------ B ---- precedes A ---- B ---- follows A ---- B ---- overlapped A ------ B ------ overlaps A ------ B ------ over booth overlaps and overlapped
Topological relations must be specified in {} parentheses.
LEFT REFERENCE l Use the time stamp of the left space time dataset INTERSECTION i Intersection DISJOINT UNION d Disjoint union UNION u Union RIGHT REFERENCE r Use the time stamp of the right space time dataset
C = A : B
In addition the inverse selection operator !: is defined as the complement of the selection operator, hence the following expression
C = A !: B
To select parts of a STDS by different topological relations to other STDS, the temporal topology selection operator can be used. The operator consists of the temporal selection operator, the topological relations, that must be separated by the logical OR operator | and the temporal extent operator. All three parts are separated by comma and surrounded by curly braces:
{"temporal selection operator", "topological relations", "temporal operator"}
C = A {:, equals} B C = A {!:, equals} B
C = A {:,equals|during|overlaps} B
C = A {:, during,r} B
C = A : B C = A {:} B C = A {:,equal} B C = A {:,equal,l} B
C = A !: B C = A {!:} B C = A {!:,equal} B C = A {!:,equal,l} B
Note A and B can either be space time datasets or expressions. The temporal relationship between the conditions and the conclusions can be defined at the beginning of the if statement. The relationship between then and else conclusion must be always equal. if statement decision option temporal relations if(if, then, else) if(conditions, A) A if conditions are True; temporal topological relation between if and then is equal. if(conditions, A, B) A if conditions are True, B otherwise; temporal topological relation between if, then and else is equal. if(topologies, conditions, A) A if conditions are True; temporal topological relation between if and then is explicit specified by topologies. if(topologies, conditions, A, B) A if conditions are True, B otherwise; temporal topological relation between if, then and else is explicit specified by topologies.

Furthermore the temporal algebra allows temporal buffering, shifting and snapping with the functions buff_t(), tshift() and tsnap() respectively.
buff_t(A, size) Buffer STDS A with granule ("1 month" or 5) tshift(A, size) Shift STDS A with granule ("1 month" or 5) tsnap(A) Snap time instances and intervals of STDS A
