We don't necessary need to change the API. The function could just set the metadata item, and the client would read it with GDALGetMetadataItem() > Enhancement request: set STATISTICS_APPROXIMATE=UNKNOWN if it is unknown.

I didn't want to pollute statistics with STATISTICS_APPROXIMATE=NO when exact computation has been done. So basically you have STATISTICS_APPROXIMATE=YES or no STATISTICS_APPROXIMATE at all when exact computation has been done (which is the normal assumption) Even -- Spatialys - Geospatial professional services http://www.spatialys.com _______________________________________________ gdal-dev mailing list gdal-dev@lists.osgeo.org https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/gdal-dev
