Hi,

I was wondering if anybody knew of a way to create a very simple line
density raster. I am not interested in interpolation or clustering,
simply how many line features pass through each pixel in the raster. I
know how to do this with points, but am having difficulty figuring out
how to do it with lines. Any help would be greatly appreciated...

Separate from the SQL, you probably need to have a strategy for doing this. so with a point I assume you just increment the point in the raster for each point. So with a line we want to increment the all the raster points along the line. Some options:

1. render the line into an empty raster then add that raster to your master raster. Where add will increment by one every set raster point in the rendered line.

2. segmentize the line into segments that are the size of a pixel in your master raster and then add the midpoints of those segments to your master raster.

Would one of these work for you?
