The GREMOVE Procedure

PROC GREMOVE Statement

Identifies the input and output map data sets.

Requirements: An input map data set is required.

Syntax

PROC GREMOVE <DATA=input-map-data-set>
<OUT=output-map-data-set>;

Options

DATA=input-map-data-set

specifies the map data set that is to be processed. By default, the procedure uses the most recently created SAS data set. The GREMOVE procedure expects the observations in the input map data set to be sorted in ascending order of the BY-variable values.

OUT=output-data-set

names the new map data set, which contains the coordinates of the new unit areas created by the GREMOVE procedure. By default, the GREMOVE procedure names the new data set using the DATAn naming convention. That is, the procedure uses the name WORK.DATAn, where n is the next unused number in sequence. Thus, the first automatically named data set is DATA1, the second is DATA2, and so on.
