I have a drone raster file which I want to use for some calculation.
Before the calculation, I need to loose some extreme values.
I want to do something like a percentile calculation where you get all
values, order them and loose the top 10%.
For this, I need to get all values first which can be slow when using a
large file.
I looked at the statistics (band.GetStatistics) but that doesn't work well.
I thought I could use 2 times the standard deviation added to the mean to
get roughly 97%.
But with these statistics:
STATISTICS_MAXIMUM=33.186080932617
STATISTICS_MEAN=24.840205979603
STATISTICS_MINIMUM=1.5951598882675
STATISTICS_STDDEV=4.7285348016053
Mean + 2*std is larger than the max.
So I moved to the histogram. It is also very fast, but I'm not sure how to
use it.
I have this:
256 buckets from 1.53322 to 33.248:
410 77 66 66 65 58 56 45 42 87 57 72 61 65 68 70 73 82 93 ...
Does this mean, bucket 1 = 410 that I have 410 pixels of value 1.53322 and
the second bucket means I have 77 pixels between 1.53322 and 1.657? 1.657 =
1.53322 + ((33.248 - 1.53322)/256)
Is this a good approach? Or can/should I use a different one.
Thanks,
Paul
