## NAME

**r3.retile**  - Retiles an existing 3D raster map with user defined x, y and z tile size.

## KEYWORDS

raster3d, tiling, voxel

## SYNOPSIS

**r3.retile**\
 **r3.retile --help**\
 **r3.retile** \[-**c**\] **input**=*name* **output**=*name*  \[**tiledimension**=*XxYxZ*\]   \[--**overwrite**\]  \[--**help**\]  \[--**verbose**\]  \[--**quiet**\]  \[--**ui**\]

### Flags:

- **-c**

  Disable tile caching

- **--overwrite**

  Verbose module output

- **--quiet**

  Quiet module output

- **--ui**

  Force launching GUI dialog

### Parameters:

- **input**=*name* **\[required\]**

  Name of input 3D raster map

- **output**=*name* **\[required\]**

  Name of the retiled 3D raster map

- **tiledimension**=*XxYxZ*

  The dimensions of the tiles used in the output raster3d map (XxYxZ or default: 16x16x8)\
   Default: *default*

## DESCRIPTION

*r3.retile* writes a copy of an existing 3D raster map with a user defined number of tiles in x, y and z direction. The precision and the type of the original 3D raster map are used for the new retiled 3D raster map.
