Import Raster Data

Import Raster Data#

This module imports raster data using the GDAL library, including ENVI, ER Mapper, GeoTIFF, Geosoft GXF and Surfer. It is possible to connect multiple imports to another module, thereby creating a ‘layer stacked’ dataset. Please note that satellite image imports take place in the Remote Sensing menu.
