Raster Accessors

RS_GeoReference

Introduction: Returns the georeference metadata of raster as a string in GDAL or ESRI format. Default is GDAL if not specified.

For more information about ScaleX, ScaleY, SkewX, SkewY, please refer to the Affine Transformations section.

Note

If you are using show() to display the output, it will show special characters as escape sequences. To get the expected behavior use the following code:

println(df.selectExpr("RS_GeoReference(rast)").sample(0.5).collect().mkString("\n"))

System.out.println(String.join("\n", df.selectExpr("RS_GeoReference(rast)").sample(0.5).collect()))

print("\n".join(df.selectExpr("RS_GeoReference(rast)").sample(0.5).collect()))

The sample() function is only there to reduce the data sent to collect(), you may also use filter() if that's appropriate.

RS_ZonalStats

Introduction: This returns a statistic value specified by statType over the region of interest defined by zone. It computes the statistic from the pixel values within the ROI geometry and returns the result. If the excludeNoData parameter is not specified, it will default to true. This excludes NoData values from the statistic calculation. Additionally, if the band parameter is not provided, band 1 will be used by default for the statistic computation. The valid options for statType are:

  • count: Number of pixels in the region.
  • sum: Sum of pixel values.
  • mean|average|avg: Arithmetic mean.
  • median: Middle value in the region.
  • mode: Most occurring value, if there are multiple values with same occurrence then will return the largest number.
  • stddev|sd: Standard deviation.
  • variance: Variance.
  • min: Minimum value in the region.
  • max: Maximum value in the region.

Note

If the coordinate reference system (CRS) of the input zone geometry differs from that of the raster, then zone will be transformed to match the CRS of the raster before computation.

The following conditions will throw an IllegalArgumentException if they are not met:

  • The provided raster and zone geometry should intersect when lenient parameter is set to false.
  • The option provided to statType should be valid.

lenient parameter is set to true by default. The function will return null if the raster and zone geometry do not intersect.

RS_Interpolate

Introduction: This function performs interpolation on a raster using the Inverse Distance Weighted (IDW) method. This method estimates cell values by averaging the values of sample data points in the vicinity of each processing cell. The influence of a sample point on the interpolated value is inversely proportional to the distance from the cell being estimated, with nearer points having more influence or weight in the averaging process.

This technique is effective in scenarios where continuity of spatial data is important, and it is essential to estimate values for locations that do not have direct measurements, often represented by NaN or noDataValue in raster data.

Note

This method assumes that the spatial influence of a variable diminishes with distance. In geospatial analysis, this means features or phenomena closer to a point of interest are given more weight than those further away. For example, in environmental data analysis, measurements from nearby locations have a greater impact on interpolated values than distant ones, reflecting the natural gradation and spatial continuity.

Parameters:

  • raster: The raster to be interpolated.
  • band: The band of the raster to be used for interpolation. If band is not provided, interpolation is performed across all bands.
  • power: A positive real number defining the exponent of distance in the IDW calculation. This parameter controls the influence of distant points on the interpolated values, default being set to 2.
  • mode: Specifies the interpolation mode - either "Variable" or "Fixed".
  • In "Variable" mode:
    • numPointsOrRadius: Specifies the number of nearest input points to be used for interpolation. Defaults to 12 if not provided.
    • maxRadiusOrMinPoints: Sets the maximum search radius, with the default being the diagonal length of the raster.
  • In "Fixed" mode:
    • numPointsOrRadius: Defines the radius within which input sample points are considered. Defaults to the diagonal length of the raster if not specified.
    • maxRadiusOrMinPoints: Represents the minimum number of points required within the radius. Defaults to 0 if not provided.

  • 1: upper left y coordinate of the raster, in terms of CRS units
  • 2: width of the raster, in terms of pixels
  • 3: height of the raster, in terms of pixels
  • 4: ScaleX: the scaling factor in the x direction
  • 5: ScaleY: the scaling factor in the y direction
  • 6: skew in x direction (rotation x)
  • 7: skew in y direction (rotation y)
  • 8: srid of the raster
  • 9: number of bands

For more information about ScaleX, ScaleY, SkewX, SkewY, please refer to the Affine Transformations section.

RS_NormalizeAll

Introduction: Normalizes values in all bands of a raster between a given normalization range. The function maintains the data type of the raster values by ensuring that the normalized values are cast back to the original data type of each band in the raster. By default, the values are normalized to range [0, 255]. RS_NormalizeAll can take upto 7 of the following arguments.

  • raster: The raster to be normalized.
  • minLim and maxLim (Optional): The lower and upper limits of the normalization range. By default, normalization range is set to [0, 255].
  • normalizeAcrossBands (Optional): A boolean flag to determine the normalization method. If set to true (default), normalization is performed across all bands based on global min and max values. If false, each band is normalized individually based on its own min and max values.
  • noDataValue (Optional): Defines the value to be used for missing or invalid data in raster bands. By default, noDataValue is set to maxLim and Safety mode is triggered.
  • minValue and maxValue (Optional): Optionally, specific minimum and maximum values of the input raster can be provided. If not provided, these values are computed from the raster data.

A Safety mode is triggered when noDataValue is not given. This sets noDataValue to maxLim and normalizes valid data values to the range [minLim, maxLim-1]. This is to avoid replacing valid data that might coincide with the new noDataValue.

Warning

Using a noDataValue that falls within the normalization range can lead to loss of valid data. If any data value within a raster band matches the specified noDataValue, it will be replaced and cannot be distinguished or recovered later. Exercise caution in selecting a noDataValue to avoid unintentional data alteration.

RS_ReprojectMatch

Introduction: Reproject a raster to match the geo-reference, CRS, and envelope of a reference raster. The output raster always have the same extent and resolution as the reference raster. For pixels not covered by the input raster, nodata value is assigned, or 0 is assigned if the input raster does not have nodata value.

The default resampling algorithm is NearestNeighbor. The following resampling algorithms are supported (case-insensitive):

  1. NearestNeighbor
  2. Bilinear
  3. Bicubic

This function serves the same purpose as the RasterArray.reproject_match function in rioxarray.

RS_Resample

Introduction: Resamples a raster using a given resampling algorithm and new dimensions (width and height), a new grid corner to pivot the raster at (gridX and gridY) and a set of georeferencing attributes (scaleX and scaleY).

RS_Resample also provides an option to pass a reference raster to draw the georeferencing attributes out of. However, the SRIDs of the input and reference raster must be same, otherwise RS_Resample throws an IllegalArgumentException.

For the purpose of resampling, width-height pair and scaleX-scaleY pair are mutually exclusive, meaning any one of them can be used at a time.

The useScale parameter controls whether to use width-height or scaleX-scaleY. If useScale is false, the provided widthOrScale and heightOrScale values will be floored to integers and considered as width and height respectively (floating point width and height are not allowed). Otherwise, they are considered as scaleX and scaleY respectively.

Currently, RS_Resample does not support skewed rasters, and hence even if a skewed reference raster is provided, its skew values are ignored. If the input raster is skewed, the output raster geometry and interpolation may be incorrect.

The default algorithm used for resampling is NearestNeighbor, and hence if a null, empty or invalid value of algorithm is provided, RS_Resample defaults to using NearestNeighbor. However, the algorithm parameter is non-optional.

Following are valid values for the algorithm parameter (Case-insensitive):

  1. NearestNeighbor
  2. Bilinear
  3. Bicubic

Tip

If you just want to resize or rescale an input raster, you can use RS_Resample(raster: Raster, widthOrScale: Double, heightOrScale: Double, useScale: Boolean, algorithm: String)

RS_SetBandNoDataValue

Introduction: This sets the no data value for a specified band in the raster. If the band index is not provided, band 1 is assumed by default. Passing a null value for noDataValue will remove the no data value and that will ensure all pixels are included in functions rather than excluded as no data.

Since v1.5.1, this function supports the ability to replace the current no-data value with the new noDataValue.

Note

When replace is true, any pixels matching the provided noDataValue will be considered as no-data in the output raster.

An IllegalArgumentException will be thrown if the input raster does not already have a no-data value defined. Replacing existing values with noDataValue requires a defined no-data baseline to evaluate against.

To use this for no-data replacement, the input raster must first set its no-data value, which can then be selectively replaced via this function.

Format:

RS_SetBandNoDataValue(raster: Raster, bandIndex: Integer, noDataValue: Double, replace: Boolean)

RS_SetBandNoDataValue(raster: Raster, bandIndex: Integer = 1, noDataValue: Double)

Since: v1.5.0

SQL Example

SELECT RS_BandNoDataValue(
        RS_SetBandNoDataValue(
            RS_MakeEmptyRaster(1, 20, 20, 2, 22, 2, 3, 1, 1, 0),
            -999
            )

Output:

-999

RS_SetGeoReference

Introduction: Sets the Georeference information of an object in a single call. Accepts inputs in GDAL and ESRI format. Default format is GDAL. If all 6 parameters are not provided then will return null.

For more information about ScaleX, ScaleY, SkewX, SkewY, please refer to the Affine Transformations section.

Format:

RS_SetGeoReference(raster: Raster, geoRefCoord: String, format: String = "GDAL")

RS_SetGeoReference(raster: Raster, upperLeftX: Double, upperLeftY: Double, scaleX: Double, scaleY: Double, skewX: Double, skewY: Double)

RS_SetPixelType

Introduction: Returns a modified raster with the desired pixel data type.

The dataType parameter accepts one of the following strings.

  • "D" - 64 bits Double
  • "F" - 32 bits Float
  • "I" - 32 bits signed Integer
  • "S" - 16 bits signed Short
  • "US" - 16 bits unsigned Short
  • "B" - 8 bits unsigned Byte

Note

If the specified dataType is narrower than the original data type, the function will truncate the pixel values to fit the new data type range.

Format:

RS_SetPixelType(raster: Raster, dataType: String)

Since: v1.6.0

SQL Example:

RS_SetPixelType(raster, "I")

RS_SetValue

Introduction: Returns a raster by replacing the value of pixel specified by colX and rowY.

Format:

RS_SetValue(raster: Raster, bandIndex: Integer = 1, colX: Integer, rowY: Integer, newValue: Double)

Since: v1.5.0

SQL Example

SELECT RS_BandAsArray(
               RS_SetValue(
                       RS_AddBandFromArray(
                               RS_MakeEmptyRaster(1, 5, 5, 0, 0, 1, -1, 0, 0, 0),

RS_SetValues

Introduction: Returns a raster by replacing the values of pixels in a specified rectangular region. The top left corner of the region is defined by the colX and rowY coordinates. The width and height parameters specify the dimensions of the rectangular region. The new values to be assigned to the pixels in this region can be specified as an array passed to this function.

Note

Since v1.5.1, if the coordinate reference system (CRS) of the input geom geometry differs from that of the raster, then geom will be transformed to match the CRS of the raster. If the raster or geom doesn't have a CRS then it will default to 4326/WGS84.

Format:

RS_SetValues(raster: Raster, bandIndex: Integer, colX: Integer, rowY: Integer, width: Integer, height: Integer, newValues: ARRAY[Double], keepNoData: Boolean = false)

RS_SetValues(raster: Raster, bandIndex: Integer, geom: Geometry, newValue: Double, keepNoData: Boolean = false)

Since: v1.5.0

The colX, rowY, and bandIndex are 1-indexed. If keepNoData is true, the pixels with NoData value will not be set to the corresponding value in newValues. The newValues should be provided in rows.

The geometry variant of this function accepts all types of Geometries, and it sets the newValue in the specified region under the geom.

Note

If the shape of newValues doesn't match with provided width and height, IllegalArgumentException is thrown.

Note

If the mentioned bandIndex doesn't exist, this will throw an IllegalArgumentException.

SQL Example

SELECT RS_BandAsArray(
        RS_SetValues(
            RS_AddBandFromArray(
                RS_MakeEmptyRaster(1, 5, 5, 0, 0, 1, -1, 0, 0, 0),

RS_Union

Introduction: Returns a combined multi-band raster from 2 or more input Rasters. The order of bands in the resultant raster will be in the order of the input rasters. For example if RS_Union is called on two 2-banded raster, raster1 and raster2, the first 2 bands of the resultant 4-banded raster will be from raster1 and the last 2 from raster 2.

Note

If the provided input Rasters don't have same shape an IllegalArgumentException will be thrown.

Format:

RS_Value

Introduction: Returns the value at the given point in the raster. If no band number is specified it defaults to 1.

Note

Since v1.5.1, if the coordinate reference system (CRS) of the input point geometry differs from that of the raster, then point will be transformed to match the CRS of the raster. If the raster or point doesn't have a CRS then it will default to 4326/WGS84.

Format:

RS_Value (raster: Raster, point: Geometry)

RS_Value (raster: Raster, point: Geometry, band: Integer)

RS_Value (raster: Raster, colX: Integer, colY: Integer, band: Integer)

Since: v1.4.0

Spark SQL Examples:

  • For Point Geometry:
SELECT RS_Value(raster, ST_Point(-13077301.685, 4002565.802)) FROM raster_table
  • For Grid Coordinates:
SELECT RS_Value(raster, 3, 4, 1) FROM raster_table

Output:

5.0

RS_Values

Introduction: Returns the values at the given points or grid coordinates in the raster. If no band number is specified it defaults to 1.

RS_Values is similar to RS_Value but operates on an array of points or grid coordinates. RS_Values can be significantly faster since a raster only has to be loaded once for several points.

Note

Since v1.5.1, if the coordinate reference system (CRS) of the input points geometries differs from that of the raster, then points will be transformed to match the CRS of the raster. If the raster or points doesn't have a CRS then it will default to 4326/WGS84.

Format:

RS_Values (raster: Raster, points: ARRAY[Geometry])

RS_Values (raster: Raster, points: ARRAY[Geometry], band: Integer)

RS_Values (raster: Raster, xCoordinates: ARRAY[Integer], yCoordinates: ARRAY[Integer], band: Integer)

Since: v1.4.0

SQL Example

  • For Array of Point geometries:
SELECT RS_Values(raster, Array(ST_Point(-1307.5, 400.8), ST_Point(-1403.3, 399.1)))
FROM raster_table
  • For Arrays of grid coordinates:
SELECT RS_Values(raster, Array(4, 5), Array(3, 2), 1) FROM raster_table

Output:

Array(5.0, 3.0)

Spark SQL example for joining a point dataset with a raster dataset:

val pointDf = sedona.read...
val rasterDf = sedona.read.format("binaryFile").load("/some/path/*.tiff")
  .withColumn("raster", expr("RS_FromGeoTiff(content)"))
  .withColumn("envelope", expr("RS_Envelope(raster)"))

// Join the points with the raster extent and aggregate points to arrays.
// We only use the path and envelope of the raster to keep the shuffle as small as possible.
val df = pointDf.join(rasterDf.select("path", "envelope"), expr("ST_Within(point_geom, envelope)"))
  .groupBy("path")
  .agg(collect_list("point_geom").alias("point"), collect_list("point_id").alias("id"))

df.join(rasterDf, "path")
  .selectExpr("explode(arrays_zip(id, point, RS_Values(raster, point))) as result")
  .selectExpr("result.*")
  .show()

Output:

Raster Tiles

RS_Tile

Introduction: Returns an array of rasters resulting from the split of the input raster based upon the desired dimensions of the output rasters.

Format: RS_Tile(raster: Raster, width: Int, height: Int, padWithNoData: Boolean = false, noDataVal: Double = null)

Format: RS_Tile(raster: Raster, bandIndices: Array[Int], width: Int, height: Int, padWithNoData: Boolean = false, noDataVal: Double = null)

Since: v1.5.1

width and height specifies the size of generated tiles. If bandIndices is NULL or not specified, all bands will be included in the output tiles, otherwise bands specified by bandIndices will be included. Band indices are 1-based.

If padWithNoData = false, edge tiles on the right and bottom sides of the raster may have different dimensions than the rest of the tiles. If padWithNoData = true, all tiles will have the same dimensions with the possibility that edge tiles being padded with NODATA values. If raster band(s) do not have NODATA value(s) specified, one can be specified by setting noDataVal.

SQL example:

WITH raster_table AS (SELECT RS_MakeEmptyRaster(1, 6, 6, 300, 400, 10) rast)
SELECT RS_Tile(rast, 2, 2) AS tiles FROM raster_table

Output:

RS_TileExplode

Introduction: Generates records containing raster tiles resulting from the split of the input raster based upon the desired dimensions of the output rasters.

Format: RS_TileExplode(raster: Raster, width: Int, height: Int, padWithNoData: Boolean = false, noDataVal: Double = null)

Format: RS_TileExplode(raster: Raster, bandIndex: Int, width: Int, height: Int, padWithNoData: Boolean = false, noDataVal: Double = null)

Format: RS_TileExplode(raster: Raster, bandIndices: Array[Int], width: Int, height: Int, padWithNoData: Boolean = false, noDataVal: Double = null)

Since: v1.5.0

width and height specifies the size of generated tiles. If bandIndices is NULL or not specified, all bands will be included in the output tiles, otherwise bands specified by bandIndices will be included. bandIndex can be specified if there is only one selected band, which is equivalent to specifying bandIndices as ARRAY(bandIndex).Band indices are 1-based.

If padWithNoData = false, edge tiles on the right and bottom sides of the raster may have different dimensions than the rest of the tiles. If padWithNoData = true, all tiles will have the same dimensions with the possibility that edge tiles being padded with NODATA values. If raster band(s) do not have NODATA value(s) specified, one can be specified by setting noDataVal.

The returned records have the following schema:

  • x: The index of the tile along X axis (0-based).
  • y: The index of the tile along Y axis (0-based).
  • tile: The tile.

SQL example:

WITH raster_table AS (SELECT RS_MakeEmptyRaster(1, 6, 6, 300, 400, 10) rast)
SELECT RS_TileExplode(rast, 2, 2) FROM raster_table

Raster to Map Algebra Operators

To bridge the gap between the raster and map algebra worlds, the following operators are provided. These operators convert a raster to a map algebra object. The map algebra object can then be used with the map algebra operators described in the next section.

RS_BandAsArray

Introduction: Extract a band from a raster as an array of doubles.

Format: RS_BandAsArray (raster: Raster, bandIndex: Integer).

Since: v1.4.1

BandIndex is 1-based and must be between 1 and RS_NumBands(raster). It returns null if the bandIndex is out of range or the raster is null.

SQL Example

SELECT RS_BandAsArray(raster, 1) FROM raster_table

Output:

+--------------------+
|                band|
+--------------------+
|[0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0...|
+--------------------+

RS_AddBandFromArray

Introduction: Add a band to a raster from an array of doubles.

Format:

RS_AddBandFromArray (raster: Raster, band: ARRAY[Double])

RS_AddBandFromArray (raster: Raster, band: ARRAY[Double], bandIndex: Integer)

RS_AddBandFromArray (raster: Raster, band: ARRAY[Double], bandIndex: Integer, noDataValue: Double)

Since: v1.5.0

The bandIndex is 1-based and must be between 1 and RS_NumBands(raster) + 1. It throws an exception if the bandIndex is out of range or the raster is null. If not specified, the noDataValue of the band is assumed to be null.

When the bandIndex is RS_NumBands(raster) + 1, it appends the band to the end of the raster. Otherwise, it replaces the existing band at the bandIndex.

If the bandIndex and noDataValue is not given, a convenience implementation adds a new band with a null noDataValue.

Adding a new band with a custom noDataValue requires bandIndex = RS_NumBands(raster) + 1 and non-null noDataValue to be explicitly specified.

Modifying or Adding a customNoDataValue is also possible by giving an existing band in RS_AddBandFromArray

In order to remove an existing noDataValue from an existing band, pass null as the noDataValue in the RS_AddBandFromArray.

Note that: bandIndex == RS_NumBands(raster) + 1 is an experimental feature and might lead to the loss of raster metadata and properties such as color models.

Note

RS_AddBandFromArray typecasts the double band values to the given datatype of the raster. This can lead to overflow values if values beyond the range of the raster's datatype are provided.

SQL Example

SELECT RS_AddBandFromArray(raster, RS_MultiplyFactor(RS_BandAsArray(RS_FromGeoTiff(content), 1), 2)) AS raster FROM raster_table
SELECT RS_AddBandFromArray(raster, RS_MultiplyFactor(RS_BandAsArray(RS_FromGeoTiff(content), 1), 2), 1) AS raster FROM raster_table
SELECT RS_AddBandFromArray(raster, RS_MultiplyFactor(RS_BandAsArray(RS_FromGeoTiff(content), 1), 2), 1, -999) AS raster FROM raster_table

Output:

+--------------------+
|              raster|

RS_MapAlgebra

Introduction: Apply a map algebra script on a raster.

Format:

RS_MapAlgebra (raster: Raster, pixelType: String, script: String)

RS_MapAlgebra (raster: Raster, pixelType: String, script: String, noDataValue: Double)

RS_MapAlgebra(rast0: Raster, rast1: Raster, pixelType: String, script: String, noDataValue: Double)

Since: v1.5.0

RS_MapAlgebra runs a script on a raster. The script is written in a map algebra language called Jiffle. The script takes a raster as input and returns a raster of the same size as output. The script can be used to apply a map algebra expression on a raster. The input raster is named rast in the Jiffle script, and the output raster is named out.

SQL Example

Calculate the NDVI of a raster with 4 bands (R, G, B, NIR):

-- Assume that the input raster has 4 bands: R, G, B, NIR
-- rast[0] refers to the R band, rast[3] refers to the NIR band.
SELECT RS_MapAlgebra(rast, 'D', 'out = (rast[3] - rast[0]) / (rast[3] + rast[0]);') AS ndvi FROM raster_table

Output:

+--------------------+
|              raster|
+--------------------+
|GridCoverage2D["g...|
+--------------------+

Spark SQL Example for two raster input RS_MapAlgebra:

RS_MapAlgebra(rast0, rast1, 'D', 'out = rast0[0] * 0.5 + rast1[0] * 0.5;', null)
