  output_Raster = FALSE, ignore.full_scan = TRUE, verbose = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

srcfile

Character. The source file name(s).

dstfile

Character. The destination file name.

s_srs

Character. source spatial reference set. The coordinate systems that can be passed are anything supported by the OGRSpatialReference.SetFromUserInput() call, which includes EPSG PCS and GCSes (ie. EPSG:4296), PROJ.4 declarations (as above), or the name of

t_srs

Character. target spatial reference set. The coordinate systems that can be passed are anything supported by the OGRSpatialReference.SetFromUserInput() call, which includes EPSG PCS and GCSes (ie. EPSG:4296), PROJ.4 declarations (as above), or the name of

Character. set a transformer option suitable to pass to GDALCreateGenImgProjTransformer2().

order

Numeric. order of polynomial used for warping (1 to 3). The default is to select a polynomial order based on the number of GCPs.

tps

Logical. Force use of thin plate spline transformer based on available GCPs.

rpc

Logical. Force use of RPCs.

geoloc

Logical. Force use of Geolocation Arrays.

Numeric. error threshold for transformation approximation (in pixel units - defaults to 0.125).

refine_gcps

Numeric. (GDAL >= 1.9.0) refines the GCPs by automatically eliminating outliers. Outliers will be eliminated until minimum_gcps are left or when no outliers can be detected. The tolerance is passed to adjust when a GCP will be eliminated. Note that GCP re

Numeric. (c(xmin,ymin,xmax,ymax)). set georeferenced extents of output file to be created (in target SRS).

te_srs

Character. srs_def. (GDAL >= 2.0) Specifies the SRS in which to interpret the coordinates given with -te. The srs_def may be any of the usual GDAL/OGR forms, complete WKT, PROJ.4, EPSG:n or a file containing the WKT. This must not be confused with -t_srs

Numeric. (c(xres,yres)). set output file resolution (in target georeferenced units)

tap

Logical. (GDAL >= 1.8.0) (target aligned pixels) align the coordinates of the extent of the output file to the values of the -tr, such that the aligned extent includes the minimum extent.

Numeric. (c(width,height)). set output file size in pixels and lines. If width or height is set to 0, the other dimension will be guessed from the computed resolution. Note that -ts cannot be used with -tr

ovr

Character. (level | "AUTO" | "AUTO-n" | "NONE"). (GDAL >= 2.0) To specify which overview level of source files must be used. The default choice, AUTO, will select the overview level whose resolution is the closest to the target resolution. Specify an inte

Character. Set a warp options. The GDALWarpOptions::papszWarpOptions docs show all options. Multiple -wo options may be listed.

Character. For the output bands to be of the indicated data type.

Character. Working pixel data type. The data type of pixels in the source image and destination image buffers.

srcnodata

Character. Set nodata masking values for input bands (different values can be supplied for each band). If more than one value is supplied all values should be quoted to keep them together as a single operating system argument. Masked values will not be us

dstnodata

Character. Set nodata values for output bands (different values can be supplied for each band). If more than one value is supplied all values should be quoted to keep them together as a single operating system argument. New files will be initialized to th

dstalpha

Logical. Create an output alpha band to identify nodata (unset/transparent) pixels.

Numeric. Set the amount of memory (in megabytes) that the warp API is allowed to use for caching.

multi

Logical. Use multithreaded warping implementation. Multiple threads will be used to process chunks of image and perform input/output operation simultaneously.

Logical. Be quiet.

Character. Select the output format. The default is GeoTIFF (GTiff). Use the short format name.

Character. passes a creation option to the output format driver. Multiple -co options may be listed. See format specific documentation for legal creation options for each format.

cutline

Character. Enable use of a blend cutline from the name OGR support datasource.

Character. Select the named layer from the cutline datasource.

cwhere

Character. Restrict desired cutline features based on attribute query.

csql

Character. Select cutline features using an SQL query instead of from a layer with -cl.

cblend

Numeric. Set a blend distance to use to blend over cutlines (in pixels).

crop_to_cutline

Logical. (GDAL >= 1.8.0) Crop the extent of the target dataset to the extent of the cutline.

overwrite

Logical. (GDAL >= 1.8.0) Overwrite the target dataset if it already exists.

nomd

Logical. (GDAL >= 1.10.0) Do not copy metadata. Without this option, dataset and band metadata (as well as some band information) will be copied from the first source dataset. Items that differ between source datasets will be set to * (see -cvmd option).

cvmd

Character. (GDAL >= 1.10.0) Value to set metadata items that conflict between source datasets (default is "*"). Use "" to remove conflicting items.

setci

Logical. (GDAL >= 1.10.0) Set the color interpretation of the bands of the target dataset from the source dataset.

Character. NAME=VALUE. (starting with GDAL 2.0) Dataset open option (format specific).

doo

Character. NAME=VALUE. (starting with GDAL 2.1) Output dataset open option (format specific).

output_Raster

Logical. Return output dst_dataset as a RasterBrick?

ignore.full_scan

Logical. If FALSE, perform a brute-force scan if other installs are not found. Default is TRUE.

verbose

Logical. Enable verbose execution? Default is FALSE.

...

Additional arguments.

Value

NULL or if(output_Raster), a RasterBrick.

Details

This is an R wrapper for the 'gdalwarp' function that is part of the Geospatial Data Abstraction Library (GDAL). It follows the parameter naming conventions of the original function, with some modifications to allow for more R-like parameters. For all parameters, the user can use a single character string following, precisely, the gdalwarp format (http://www.gdal.org/gdalwarp.html), or, in some cases, can use R vectors to achieve the same end.

This function assumes the user has a working GDAL on their system. If the "gdalUtils_gdalPath" option has been set (usually by gdal_setInstallation), the GDAL found in that path will be used. If nothing is found, gdal_setInstallation will be executed to attempt to find a working GDAL that has the right drivers as specified with the "of" (output format) parameter.

The resampling_methods available are as follows:

near: nearest neighbour resampling (default, fastest algorithm, worst interpolation quality).

bilinear: bilinear resampling. cubic: cubic resampling. cubicspline: cubic spline resampling. lanczos: Lanczos windowed sinc resampling. average: average resampling, computes the average of all non-NODATA contributing pixels. (GDAL >= 1.10.0) mode: mode resampling, selects the value which appears most often of all the sampled points. (GDAL >= 1.10.0) max: maximum resampling, selects the maximum value from all non-NODATA contributing pixels. (GDAL >= 2.0.0) min: minimum resampling, selects the minimum value from all non-NODATA contributing pixels. (GDAL >= 2.0.0) med: median resampling, selects the median value of all non-NODATA contributing pixels. (GDAL >= 2.0.0) q1: first quartile resampling, selects the first quartile value of all non-NODATA contributing pixels. (GDAL >= 2.0.0) q3: third quartile resampling, selects the third quartile value of all non-NODATA contributing pixels. (GDAL >= 2.0.0)

Examples

Run this code

# We'll pre-check to make sure there is a valid GDAL install
# and that raster and rgdal are also installed.
# Note this isn't strictly neccessary, as executing the function will
# force a search for a valid GDAL install.
gdal_setInstallation()
valid_install <- !is.null(getOption("gdalUtils_gdalPath"))
if(require(raster) && require(rgdal) && valid_install)
{
# Example from the original gdal_translate documentation:
src_dataset <- system.file("external/tahoe_highrez.tif", package="gdalUtils")
# Command-line gdalwarp call:
# gdalwarp -t_srs '+proj=utm +zone=11 +datum=WGS84' raw_spot.tif utm11.tif
