Name

ST_SetValues — Returns modified raster resulting from setting the values of a given band.

Synopsis

raster ST_SetValues(raster rast, integer nband, integer columnx, integer rowy, double precision[][] newvalueset, boolean[][] noset=NULL, boolean keepnodata=FALSE);

raster ST_SetValues(raster rast, integer nband, integer columnx, integer rowy, double precision[][] newvalueset, double precision nosetvalue, boolean keepnodata=FALSE);

raster ST_SetValues(raster rast, integer nband, integer columnx, integer rowy, integer width, integer height, double precision newvalue, boolean keepnodata=FALSE);

raster ST_SetValues(raster rast, integer columnx, integer rowy, integer width, integer height, double precision newvalue, boolean keepnodata=FALSE);

raster ST_SetValues(raster rast, integer nband, geomval[] geomvalset, boolean keepnodata=FALSE);

Description

Returns modified raster resulting from setting specified pixels to new value(s) for the designated band. columnx and rowy are 1-indexed.

If keepnodata is TRUE, those pixels whose values are NODATA will not be set with the corresponding value in newvalueset.

For Variant 1, the specific pixels to be set are determined by the columnx, rowy pixel coordinates and the dimensions of the newvalueset array. noset can be used to prevent pixels with values present in newvalueset from being set (due to PostgreSQL not permitting ragged/jagged arrays). See example Variant 1.

Variant 2 is like Variant 1 but with a simple double precision nosetvalue instead of a boolean noset array. Elements in newvalueset with the nosetvalue value with be skipped. See example Variant 2.

For Variant 3, the specific pixels to be set are determined by the columnx, rowy pixel coordinates, width and height. See example Variant 3.

Variant 4 is the same as Variant 3 with the exception that it assumes that the first band's pixels of rast will be set.

For Variant 5, an array of geomval is used to determine the specific pixels to be set. If all the geometries in the array are of type POINT or MULTIPOINT, the function uses a shortcut where the longitude and latitude of each point is used to set a pixel directly. Otherwise, the geometries are converted to rasters and then iterated through in one pass. See example Variant 5.
