Re: [gdal-dev] Get max elevation on "squares"

Hi Luca, I haven't followed the discussion in detail, but you could use https://gdal.org/programs/gdallocationinfo.html to read out the values from your resampled raster. The elevation differences between high and coarse resolution DEMs strongly depend on the relief in the area of

In SAGA GIS there is a Crop to Data module (in Grid Tools module library), which performs the task. But this would require you to import your Geotif with the GDAL import module, process it in SAGA, and finally export it as Geotif again with the GDAL export module. Best regards, Volker On

The workflow with QGIS described by Frank is also working with SAGA GIS. SAGA also allows you to export a permament combination as image file (tif, jpg, png ... including world file and kml) with the 'Export Image' module. Volker On 02/21/2012 02:14 PM, Frank Broniewski wrote: Hi, the

This seems to me like an integer overflow - looking at the GDAL 1.7.2 sources I see, that the WriteHeader() method of sagadataset.cpp is using GInt16 nXSize, GInt16 nYSize Most likely this should be changed to int nXSize, int nYSize Best regards, Volker Am 06.01.2011 10:48, schrieb
