DESCRIPTION

       gdalinfo program lists various information about a GDAL supported raster dataset.

       The following command line parameters can appear in any order

       -json  Display the output in json format.

       -mm    Force computation of the actual min/max values for each band in the dataset.

       -stats Read and display image statistics. Force computation if no statistics are stored in
              an image.

       -approx_stats
              Read and display image statistics. Force computation if no statistics are stored in
              an  image.  However,  they  may  be  computed based on overviews or a subset of all
              tiles. Useful if you are in a hurry and don't want precise stats.

       -hist  Report histogram information for all bands.

       -nogcp Suppress ground control points list printing. It may be useful  for  datasets  with
              huge  amount  of  GCPs,  such as L1B AVHRR or HDF4 MODIS which contain thousands of
              them.

       -nomd  Suppress metadata printing. Some datasets may contain a lot of metadata strings.

       -norat Suppress printing of raster attribute table.

       -noct  Suppress printing of color table.

       -checksum
              Force computation of the checksum for each band in the dataset.

       -listmdd
              List all metadata domains available for the dataset.

       -mdd <domain>|all
              adds metadata using:

              domain Report metadata for the specified domain.

              all Report metadata for all domains.

       -nofl  Only display the first file of the file list.

       -wkt_format WKT1|WKT2|WKT2_2015|WKT2_2018
              WKT format used to display the SRS.  Currently the supported values are:

              WKT1

              WKT2 (latest WKT version, currently WKT2_2018)

              WKT2_2015

              WKT2_2018

              New in version 3.0.0.

       -sd <n>
              If the input dataset contains several subdatasets read  and  display  a  subdataset
              with  specified  n  number (starting from 1).  This is an alternative of giving the
              full subdataset name.

       -proj4 Report a PROJ.4 string corresponding to the file's coordinate system.

       -oo <NAME=VALUE>
              Dataset open option (format specific).

       -if <format>
              Format/driver name to be attempted to open the input file(s). It is  generally  not
              necessary  to  specify  it,  but it can be used to skip automatic driver detection,
              when it fails to select the  appropriate  driver.   This  option  can  be  repeated
              several times to specify several candidate drivers.

              New in version 3.2.

       The gdalinfo will report all of the following (if known):

       • The format driver used to access the file.

       • Raster size (in pixels and lines).

       • The coordinate system for the file (in OGC WKT).

       • The  geotransform  associated  with  the file (rotational coefficients are currently not
         reported).

       • Corner coordinates in  georeferenced,  and  if  possible  lat/long  based  on  the  full
         geotransform (but not GCPs).

       • Ground control points.

       • File wide (including subdatasets) metadata.

       • Band data types.

       • Band color interpretations.

       • Band block size.

       • Band descriptions.

       • Band min/max values (internally known and possibly computed).

       • Band checksum (if computation asked).

       • Band NODATA value.

       • Band overview resolutions available.

       • Band unit type (i.e.. "meters" or "feet" for elevation bands).

       • Band pseudo-color tables.

C API

       This utility is also callable from C with GDALInfo().

       New in version 2.1.
