NAME
gdalmanage - Identify, delete, rename and copy raster data files.
SYNOPSIS
Usage: gdalmanage mode [-r] [-u] [-f format]
datasetname [newdatasetname]
DESCRIPTION
The gdalmanage program can perform various operations on raster data
files, depending on the chosen mode. This includes identifying raster
data types and deleting, renaming or copying the files.
<mode> Mode of operation
identify <datasetname>:
List data format of file.
copy <datasetname> <newdatasetname>:
Create a copy of the raster file with a new name.
rename <datasetname> <newdatasetname>:
Change the name of the raster file.
delete <datasetname>:
Delete raster file.
-r Recursively scan files/folders for raster files.
-u Report failures if file type is unidentified.
-f <format>
Specify format of raster file if unknown by the application.
Uses short data format name (e.g. GTiff).
<datasetname>
Raster file to operate on.
<newdatasetname>
For copy and rename modes, you provide a source filename and a
target filename, just like copy and move commands in an operat-
ing system.
EXAMPLES
Using identify mode
Report the data format of the raster file by using the identify mode
and specifying a data file name:
$ gdalmanage identify NE1_50M_SR_W.tif
NE1_50M_SR_W.tif: GTiff
Recursive mode will scan subfolders and report the data format:
$ gdalmanage identify -r 50m_raster/
NE1_50M_SR_W/ne1_50m.jpg: JPEG
NE1_50M_SR_W/ne1_50m.png: PNG
NE1_50M_SR_W/ne1_50m_20pct.tif: GTiff
NE1_50M_SR_W/ne1_50m_band1.tif: GTiff
NE1_50M_SR_W/ne1_50m_print.png: PNG
NE1_50M_SR_W/NE1_50M_SR_W.aux: HFA
NE1_50M_SR_W/NE1_50M_SR_W.tif: GTiff
NE1_50M_SR_W/ne1_50m_sub.tif: GTiff
NE1_50M_SR_W/ne1_50m_sub2.tif: GTiff
Using copy mode
Copy the raster data:
$ gdalmanage copy NE1_50M_SR_W.tif ne1_copy.tif
Using rename mode
Rename raster data:
$ gdalmanage rename NE1_50M_SR_W.tif ne1_rename.tif
Using delete mode
Delete the raster data:
gdalmanage delete NE1_50M_SR_W.tif
