Raster Conversion

Convert raster datasets between formats and data types.

Overview

Raster conversion transforms raster datasets between different formats, data types, and projections.

Inputs

Raster Dataset: Raster dataset to convert
Output Format: Target format
Data Type: Target data type
Projection (optional): Target projection

Outputs

New raster dataset with:

Converted format
Specified data type
Projected coordinates (if specified)

Example

{
  "raster_dataset_id": 125,
  "output_format": "GeoTIFF",
  "data_type": "Float32"
}

Use Cases

Format conversion
Data type optimization
Projection transformation
Compatibility preparation

Notes

Data type conversion may affect values
Projection transformation requires resampling
Large rasters may take time to process
Output format affects file size
