Interface to the raster API of the 'Geospatial Data Abstraction
Library' ('GDAL') supporting manual creation of uninitialized datasets,
creation from existing raster as template, low level I/O, configuration of
virtual raster (VRT), coordinate transformation, and access to 'gdalwarp'
for reprojection. Includes selected 'GDAL' algorithms and functions for
working with spatial reference systems. Calling signatures resemble the
native C, C++ and Python APIs provided by the 'GDAL' project
(<https://gdal.org>). Bindings are implemented via 'Rcpp' exposed class
along with several stand-alone functions. Additional functionality
includes: class 'RunningStats' for efficient summary statistics on large
data streams; class 'CmbTable' for counting unique combinations of integers
with a hash table; raster overlay to identify and count unique pixel
combinations across multiple input layers; raster calculation by evaluating
any R expression on a stack of layers with pixel coordinates available as
variables; and raster display using base 'graphics'. 'gdalraster' may be
suitable for applications that primarily need low-level I/O or prefer a
direct 'GDAL' API. The additional functionality is somewhat aimed at
thematic data analysis but may have other utility.
