# 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
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"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
