The closest thing you can do without doing any coding is to use the gdal_contour utility[1] to create a vector file and then use gdal_rasterize [2] to burn them back to a raster. If you use appropriate options, all your pixels will be clamped to the discrete levels used in gdal_contour. It's straig

Thanks for the reply. I had looked at these before, and then looked again after your note, but I just don't understand how I map the climate variable values to different colors in the palette, along the lines of: tmax < 30| color1 30 < tmax < 50 | color2 tmax > 50| c

Stephen, The docs for rgb2pct.py script [1] has an example that shows how to convert to a paletted image using hand made VRT file. You can use the "-of PNG" option to set the destination format as png and the -pct option with your VRT file. On Wed, Jul 27, 2011 at 2:42 AM, Stephen Crawford wrote

Hi All, I have 60 or so asciiGrids of climate data that I would like to tun into PNGs, with the climate values classified by color. I would like to script this process using Python. Is there a way to do this with GDAL? Or if not, is there any other open source way to do this? Thanks, Stev
