additional arguments. None implemented
SpatRaster (invisibly). This function is used for the side-effect of writing values to a file.
In many methods, options for writing raster files to disk can be provided with the wopt
argument. wopt
should be a named list. The following names are valid: datatype
, filetype
, gdal
, tempdir
, progress
, memfrac
and names
.
Values for filetype
are GDAL driver names. If this argument is not supplied, the driver is derived from the filename.
Values for datatype
are "INT2U", "INT2S", "INT4U", "INT4S", "FLT4S", "FLT8S". The first three letters indicate whether it is an integer (whole numbers) of float (decimal numbers), the fourth character indicates the number of bytes used (allowing for large numbers, and/or more precision), and the "S" or "U" indicate whether the values are signed (both negative and positive) or unsigned (postive values only).
Values for gdal
are GDAL driver specific datasource creation options. See the GDAL documentation. For example: c("COMPRESS=LZW",TFW=YES)
