0.0 .INDENT 3.5 .sp .EX Usage: gdal raster [OPTIONS] where is one of: \- as\-features: Create features from pixels of a raster dataset \- aspect: Generate an aspect map \- blend: Blend/compose two raster datasets \- calc: Perform raster algebra \- clean\-collar: Clean the collar of a raster dataset, removing noise. \- clip: Clip a raster dataset. \- color\-map: Generate a RGB or RGBA dataset from a single band, using a color map \- compare: Compare two raster datasets. \- contour: Creates a vector contour from a raster elevation model (DEM). \- convert: Convert a raster dataset. \- create: Create a new raster dataset. \- edit: Edit a raster dataset. \- fill\-nodata: Fill nodata raster regions by interpolation from edges. \- footprint: Compute the footprint of a raster dataset. \- hillshade: Generate a shaded relief map \- index: Create a vector index of raster datasets. \- info: Return information on a raster dataset. \- mosaic: Build a mosaic, either virtual (VRT) or materialized. \- neighbors: Compute the value of each pixel from its neighbors (focal statistics) (alias: neighbours) \- nodata\-to\-alpha: Replace nodata value(s) with an alpha band. \- overview: Manage overviews of a raster dataset. \- pansharpen: Perform a pansharpen operation. \- pipeline: Process a raster dataset applying several steps. \- pixel\-info: Return information on a pixel of a raster dataset. \- polygonize: Create a polygon feature dataset from a raster band. \- proximity: Produces a raster proximity map. \- reclassify: Reclassify values in a raster dataset \- reproject: Reproject a raster dataset. \- resize: Resize a raster dataset without changing the georeferenced extents. \- rgb\-to\-palette: Convert a RGB image into a pseudo\-color / paletted image. \- roughness: Generate a roughness map \- scale: Scale the values of the bands of a raster dataset. \- select: Select a subset of bands from a raster dataset. \- set\-type: Modify the data type of bands of a raster dataset. \- sieve: Remove small polygons from a raster dataset. \- slope: Generate a slope map \- stack: Combine together input bands into a multi\-band output, either virtual (VRT) or materialized. \- tile: Generate tiles in separate files from a raster dataset. \- tpi: Generate a Topographic Position Index (TPI) map \- tri: Generate a Terrain Ruggedness Index (TRI) map \- unscale: Convert scaled values of a raster dataset into unscaled values. \- update: Update the destination raster with the content of the input one. \- viewshed: Compute the viewshed of a raster dataset. \- zonal\-stats: Calculate raster zonal statistics Common Options: \-h, \-\-help Display help message and exit \-\-json\-usage Display usage as JSON document and exit \-\-config = Configuration option [may be repeated] Options: \-\-drivers Display raster driver list as JSON document .EE .UNINDENT .UNINDENT .SH AVAILABLE SUB-COMMANDS .INDENT 0.0 .IP \(bu 2 \fI\%gdal raster info\fP .IP \(bu 2
