Each Band has a Data array and potentially Overviews. A Dataset has a Geotransform (metadata) and can contain one or more Bands.
When opening a raster file in gdal, the object has a hierarchical structure starting at the Dataset level. GDAL handles raster and vector geospatial data formats with Python, Java, R and C APIs. With open('./data/AHN2_05m_DTM.tif', 'wb') as file:įile.write(response.read()) From a file with GDAL If not os.path.exists('data'): os.makedirs('data') # Create a data directoty within the directory where this script is run if it does not exist yet and store file # Write the data to a local file in the 'data' folder (it should exist) # Define a bounding box in the availble crs (see before) by picking a point and drawing a 1x1 km box around it Access the web coverage service to have a look at the contents. AHN stands for “Actueel Hoogtebestand Nederland” and is a Digital Elevation Model that covers the Netherlands. Have a look at the WCS of the AHN dataset. Today we will work with elevation rasters. A Web Map Service also exists for rasters it allows downloading of images but without the data values. Web Coverage Services are a standard by the Open Geospatial Consortium and allow the downloading of geospatial raster data with multiple types of format encoding: GeoTIFF, netCDF, JPEG2000 etc. Reading raster data and accessing metadata Via a Web Coverage ServiceĪ Web Coverage Service (WCS) loads raster data in a similar way as Web Feature Services (WFS) load vector data. Activate the ‘geoscripting’ conda environment and start up Spyder, as you have learned in the last two lessions. We can use the existing ‘geoscripting’ environment.
NumPy is fundamental package for scientific computing, such as array (thus raster) calculations.Rasterio reads and writes geospatial raster data.
