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
