See a two-dimensional slice of an array as an ordinary raster

This is the bridge back to the rest of the package: the result is a GDALDataset, so read_raster(), its geotransform property and the band properties all work on it. The array must have exactly two dimensions; take a get_view() of it first if it has more.

Usage

as_classic_dataset(x, x_dim = NULL, y_dim = NULL)

Arguments

x

A GDALMDArray object

x_dim, y_dim

Which dimension is the raster's X and which its Y, counting from 1 in the array's own dimension order. By default the format's own horizontal X and Y dimensions are used, falling back to the last two.

Value

A GDALDataset object.
