h2. Description

Specialized command for gridding sonar data or large point sets. The *son* without the *ppg* option is covered by the command [grp] . 

The *son ppg* is a snapping algorithm of input points to the grid result. The algorithm will snap free point data into a grid of size _nx ny_. The snap gridding will make defined grid nodes of each node that is closest to an input point. If more than one point are sorted to a node, the node value will be the average of the point values. A count grid telling the number of coincident points can be generated. 

h2. Arguments

{indent}No arguments, the grid will have the same number of rows and columns as the last grid that set the @nrow @ncol variables.{indent} 
*inc* _xinc yinc_ 
{indent}Create grid model grid with increments _xinc_ and _yinc_ .{indent} 
_nx ny_ 
{indent}Create a grid with _nx_ times _ny_ grid cells.{indent} 
*long* _num_ 
{indent}Create a grid with _num_ nodes for the longest side. Use the same increment for the shortest side.{indent} 
*tri* 
{indent}The three nearest nodes will be used.{indent} 
*all | four* 
{indent}All four nodes surrounding a point will be used.{indent} 
*eig* 
{indent}All eigth nodes surrounding a point including the nearest will be used.{indent} 
*eigone* 
{indent}All eigth nodes surrounding a point will be used and the value 1 will be placed.{indent} 
*low* 
{indent}If coincident points, the lowest will be used and placed in the nearest node.{indent} 
*hi* 
{indent}If coincident points, the highest will be used and placed in the nearest node.{indent} 
*dob* 
{indent}Double check that the first point will be placed in the nearest node and the next coinciding in the three nearest.{indent} 
*auto* 
{indent}The x and y increments are found from the input points. Useful for cases where the input points already are orginized in a grid system.{indent}
*count* 
{indent}The generated grid will have the counting of coincident points.{indent} 
*mrf* 
{indent}Make reference grid (boundary grid) and reference line around a point set. The reference grid is saved in *active* and the reference line is saved in workspace *refLine*. Look at the options for detailed control.{indent} 
*mrf* _num_ 
{indent}Create a boundary grid with _num_ nodes for the sides. Points within the boundary grid will define the boundary.{indent} 
*mrf bou* _nx ny_ \[*nodraw*] 
{indent}Create a boundary grid with _nx ny_ nodes for the sides. Points within the boundary grid will define the boundary. The *nodraw* option will prevent the derived boundary line to de drawn.{indent}
*mrf dis* _distance_ 
{indent}Create a boundary grid so that points separated less than _distance_ will be within the same boundary.{indent} 
*mrf* ... *abx* 
{indent}Will remove interior boundaries inside other boundaries in the set of boundary lines.{indent}
