GDAL-RASTER-PANSHARPEN(1) GDAL GDAL-RASTER-PANSHARPEN(1) (NAME) gdal-raster-pansharpen - (Pan-sharpening) 3.12. (SYNOPSIS) Usage: gdal raster pansharpen [OPTIONS] ... Perform a pansharpen operation. Positional arguments: -i, --panchromatic, --input Input panchromatic raster dataset [required] [not available in pipelines] --spectral Input spectral band dataset [1.. values] [required] -o, --output Output raster dataset [required] [not available in pipelines] Common Options: -h, --help Display help message and exit --json-usage Display usage as JSON document and exit --config = Configuration option [may be repeated] -q, --quiet Quiet mode (no progress bar or warning message) [not available in pipelines] Options: -f, --of, --format, --output-format Output format ("GDALG" allowed) [not available in pipelines] --co, --creation-option = Creation option [may be repeated] [not available in pipelines] --overwrite Whether overwriting existing output dataset is allowed [not available in pipelines] Mutually exclusive with --append --append Append as a subdataset to existing output [not available in pipelines] Mutually exclusive with --overwrite -r, --resampling Resampling algorithm. RESAMPLING=nearest|bilinear|cubic|cubicspline|lanczos|average (default: cubic) --weights Weight for each input spectral band [may be repeated] --nodata Override nodata value of input bands --bit-depth Override bit depth of input bands --spatial-extent-adjustment Select behavior when bands have not the same extent.
