RS_FromPath

Creates an out-of-database raster from a raster file path.

Usage

raster RS_FromPath(path: string)

Arguments

  • path (string)

Description

Loads raster metadata from the file at path and returns a raster whose bands reference the source file as out-db bands.

This is useful when you want to work with rasters stored on disk without copying their pixel data into the raster value itself.

Examples

SELECT RS_BandPath(RS_FromPath('../../../submodules/sedona-testing/data/raster/test4.tiff'));
