gemgis.raster.save_as_tiff#

gemgis.raster.save_as_tiff(raster: numpy.ndarray, path: str, extent: Union[List[Union[int, float]], Tuple[Union[int, float]]], crs: Union[str, pyproj.crs.crs.CRS, rasterio.crs.CRS], nodata: Union[float, int] = None, transform=None, overwrite_file: bool = False, create_directory: bool = False)#

Saving a np.array as tif file

Parameters

  • array (np.ndarray) – Array containing the raster values

  • path (string) – Path and name of the file, e.g. path='mesh.msh'

  • extent (Union[List[Union[int, float]], Tuple[Union[int, float]]]) – List containing the bounds of the raster, e.g. extent=[0, 972, 0, 1069]

  • crs (Union[str, pyproj.crs.crs.CRS, rasterio.crs.CRS]) – CRS of the saved raster, e.g. crs='EPSG:4647'

  • nodata (Union[float, int]) – Nodata value of the raster, e.g. nodata=9999.0, default None

  • transform – Transform of the data, default is None

  • overwrite_file (bool) – Variable to overwrite an already existing file. Options include: True or False, default is False

  • create_directory (bool) – Variable to create a new directory of directory does not exist Options include: True or False, default set to False

New in version 1.0.x.

Example

>>> # Loading Libraries and File
>>> import gemgis as gg
>>> import rasterio
>>> raster = rasterio.open(fp='raster.tif')

>>> # Defining raster extent and CRS
>>> extent = [0, 972, 0, 1069]
>>> crs = 'EPSG:4326'

>>> # Saving raster as tiff
>>> gg.raster.save_as_tiff(raster=raster.read(1), path='raster_saved.tif', extent=extent, crs=crs)
Raster successfully saved
