Hi Norman,

Yes this sounds like it should work. I'll try it when I get a chance. If I made a geotiff with no navigation(WKT) and had X,Y,Z as individual bands would that work? How do I tell gdal_grid which dimension or band is X, which is Y, and which is Z? Thanks.

Could you please CC me in any replies, I get the digest and it's easier to reply if I get the original email.

Seems to me this is a point not a raster process you are looking for

e.g.  How do I make a surface from a bunch of discrete points ?

So instead of having 3 bands of raster you want a stream of XYZ triplets
you can then submit these to gdal_grid or other tools that work with discrete
data


pseudo python  assuming you have read your files into numpy arrays

XYZ  = array( zip( bandX.flatten(), bandY.flatten(), bandZ.flatten() ) )

convert XYZ to any OGR format

call gdal_grid

HTH

Norman
