GDALDataset-class: Class "GDALDataset"

Description

GDALDataset extends GDALReadOnlyDataset-class with data update commands.

Usage

putRasterData(dataset, rasterData, band = 1, offset = c(0, 0))
saveDataset(dataset, filename, options=NULL)
copyDataset(dataset, driver, strict = FALSE, options = NULL)
deleteDataset(dataset)
saveDatasetAs(dataset, filename, driver = NULL, options=NULL)

Arguments

dataset
An object inheriting from class 'GDALDataset'
rasterData
A data array with length(dim(rasterData)) = 2
band
The band number (1-based) to read from
offset
Number of rows and columns from the origin (usually the upper left corner) to begin reading from
filename
