How to use GDALWarpAppOptionsNew
GDALWarpAppOptionsNew
is a function in the GDAL library that creates a new set of options for the gdalwarp
utility. This function is part of the GDAL C API and is used to configure the parameters for warping operations, such as reprojection and resampling of raster data.
Here's a basic guide on how to use GDALWarpAppOptionsNew
:
Include the necessary headers: Make sure to include the GDAL headers in your source file.
#include "gdal.h"
#include "gdal_utils.h"
Initialize GDAL: Before using any GDAL functions, you need to initialize the GDAL library.
GDALAllRegister();
Define the options:
You need to define the options you want to pass to gdalwarp
. These options are typically the same as the command-line options for gdalwarp
.
const char *options[] = {
"-t_srs", "EPSG:4326", // Target spatial reference system
"-r", "bilinear", // Resampling method
"-of", "GTiff", // Output format
NULL // Terminate the list with a NULL pointer
};
Create the options object:
Use GDALWarpAppOptionsNew
to create the options object.
GDALWarpAppOptions *psOptions = GDALWarpAppOptionsNew(options, NULL);
if (psOptions == NULL) {
fprintf(stderr, "Failed to create GDALWarpAppOptions\n");
return 1;
}
Open the input dataset:
Open the input dataset using GDALOpen
.
GDALDatasetH hSrcDS = GDALOpen("input.tif", GA_ReadOnly);
if (hSrcDS == NULL) {
fprintf(stderr, "Failed to open input dataset\n");
return 1;
}
Create the output dataset:
You can create the output dataset using GDALWarp
with the options object.
GDALDatasetH hDstDS = GDALWarp("output.tif", NULL, 1, &hSrcDS, psOptions, NULL);
if (hDstDS == NULL) {
fprintf(stderr, "GDALWarp failed\n");
return 1;
}
Clean up: Close the datasets and free the options object.
GDALClose(hSrcDS);
GDALClose(hDstDS);
GDALWarpAppOptionsFree(psOptions);
Here is the complete example code:
#include "gdal.h"
#include "gdal_utils.h"
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
// Initialize GDAL
GDALAllRegister();
// Define the options
const char *options[] = {
"-t_srs", "EPSG:4326", // Target spatial reference system
"-r", "bilinear", // Resampling method
"-of", "GTiff", // Output format
NULL // Terminate the list with a NULL pointer
};
// Create the options object
GDALWarpAppOptions *psOptions = GDALWarpAppOptionsNew(options, NULL);
if (psOptions == NULL) {
fprintf(stderr, "Failed to create GDALWarpAppOptions\n");
return 1;
}
// Open the input dataset
GDALDatasetH hSrcDS = GDALOpen("input.tif", GA_ReadOnly);
if (hSrcDS == NULL) {
fprintf(stderr, "Failed to open input dataset\n");
return 1;
}
// Create the output dataset
GDALDatasetH hDstDS = GDALWarp("output.tif", NULL, 1, &hSrcDS, psOptions, NULL);
if (hDstDS == NULL) {
fprintf(stderr, "GDALWarp failed\n");
return 1;
}
// Clean up
GDALClose(hSrcDS);
GDALClose(hDstDS);
GDALWarpAppOptionsFree(psOptions);
return 0;
}
This example demonstrates how to use GDALWarpAppOptionsNew
to set up and execute a warping operation with GDAL. Adjust the options and file paths as needed for your
