Write a source table as a GTI index for one asset.

stac_gti_index.Rd

A GTI index is a vector layer of raster footprints read by GDAL's GTI (GDAL Tile Index) raster driver, available from GDAL 3.10, which mosaics the indexed rasters on the fly. Footprints are stored in crs (transformed from the table's EPSG:4326 bboxes), so the index layer SRS matches the grid the GTI dataset will be pinned to and the culling geometry is exact. Most users reach this via lazy_dataset() or lazy_stac_stack(), which build the index internally, and rarely call it directly.

Usage

stac_gti_index(
  sources,
  asset,
  path = tempfile(fileext = ".gti.fgb"),
  crs = "EPSG:4326"
)

Arguments

sources

A stac_sources() table with a slice column (see stac_time_slices()).

asset

Which asset's rows to index.

path

Index path; defaults to a tempfile.

crs

CRS for the index footprints (use the target grid's CRS).

Value

The index path, invisibly.
