GDAL_FILLNODATA(1) GDAL GDAL_FILLNODATA(1)

NAME

gdal_fillnodata - Fill raster regions by interpolation from edges.

SYNOPSIS

gdal_fillnodata.py [-q] [-md <max_distance>] [-si <smooth_iterations>]


                [-o <name>=<value>] [-b <band>]


                [-nomask] [-mask <filename>]


                [-interp {inv_dist,nearest}]


                [-of <format>]


                <srcfile> [<dstfile>]


DESCRIPTION

gdal_fillnodata.py script fills selection regions (usually nodata areas) by interpolating from valid pixels around the edges of the area.

Additional details on the algorithm are available in the GDALFillNodata() docs.

--help-general
Gives a brief usage message for the generic GDAL commandline options and exit.

The script runs in quiet mode. The progress monitor is suppressed and routine messages are not displayed.

The maximum distance (in pixels) that the algorithm will search out for values to interpolate. The default is 100 pixels.

The number of 3x3 average filter smoothing iterations to run after the interpolation to dampen artifacts. The default is zero smoothing iterations.

Specify a special argument to the algorithm. Currently none are supported.

The band to operate on, by default the first band is operated on.

Use the first band of the specified file as a validity mask (zero is invalid, non-zero is valid).

Select the output format. The default is GTiff -- GeoTIFF File Format. Use the short format name.

New in version 3.9.

By default, pixels are interpolated using an inverse distance weighting (inv_dist). It is also possible to choose a nearest neighbour (nearest) strategy.


<srcfile>
The source raster file used to identify target pixels. Only one band is used.

<dstfile>
The new file to create with the interpolated result. If not provided, the source band is updated in place.
