NAME

       gdallocationinfo - Raster query tool.

SYNOPSIS

          Usage: gdallocationinfo [--help-general] [-xml] [-lifonly] [-valonly]
                                  [-b band]* [-overview overview_level]
                                  [-l_srs srs_def] [-geoloc] [-wgs84]
                                  [-oo NAME=VALUE]* srcfile [x y]

DESCRIPTION

       The  gdallocationinfo utility provide a mechanism to query information about a pixel given
       its location in one of a variety of coordinate systems.   Several  reporting  options  are
       provided.

       -xml   The output report will be XML formatted for convenient post processing.

       -lifonly
              The  only  output is filenames production from the LocationInfo request against the
              database (i.e. for identifying impacted file from VRT).

       -valonly
              The only output is the pixel values of the selected pixel on each of  the  selected
              bands.

       -b <band>
              Selects  a  band to query.  Multiple bands can be listed.  By default all bands are
              queried.

       -overview <overview_level>
              Query the (overview_level)th  overview  (overview_level=1  is  the  1st  overview),
              instead  of  the base band. Note that the x,y location (if the coordinate system is
              pixel/line) must still be given with respect to the base band.

       -l_srs <srs_def>
              The coordinate system of the input x, y location.

       -geoloc
              Indicates input x,y points are in the georeferencing system of the image.

       -wgs84 Indicates input x,y points are WGS84 long, lat.

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

       <srcfile>
              The source GDAL raster datasource name.

       <x>    X location of target pixel.  By default the coordinate system is pixel/line  unless
              -l_srs, -wgs84 or -geoloc supplied.

       <y>    Y  location of target pixel.  By default the coordinate system is pixel/line unless
              -l_srs, -wgs84 or -geoloc supplied.

       This utility is intended to provide a variety of information about a pixel.  Currently  it
       reports:

       • The location of the pixel in pixel/line space.

       • The  result  of a LocationInfo metadata query against the datasource.  This is implement
         for VRT files which will report the file(s) used to satisfy requests for that pixel, and
         by the MBTiles driver

       • The raster pixel value of that pixel for all or a subset of the bands.

       • The unscaled pixel value if a Scale and/or Offset apply to the band.

       The pixel selected is requested by x/y coordinate on the command line, or read from stdin.
       More than one coordinate pair can be supplied when  reading  coordinates  from  stdin.  By
       default  pixel/line coordinates are expected.  However with use of the -geoloc, -wgs84, or
       -l_srs switches it is possible to specify the location in other coordinate systems.

       The default report is in a human readable text format.  It is possible to instead  request
       xml output with the -xml switch.

       For scripting purposes, the -valonly and -lifonly switches are provided to restrict output
       to the actual pixel values, or the LocationInfo files identified for the pixel.

       It is anticipated that additional reporting capabilities will be added to gdallocationinfo
       in the future.

EXAMPLES

       Simple example reporting on pixel (256,256) on the file utm.tif.

          $ gdallocationinfo utm.tif 256 256
          Report:
          Location: (256P,256L)
          Band 1:
              Value: 115

       Query a VRT file providing the location in WGS84, and getting the result in xml.

          $ gdallocationinfo -xml -wgs84 utm.vrt -117.5 33.75
          <Report pixel="217" line="282">
              <BandReport band="1">
                  <LocationInfo>
                  <File>utm.tif</File>
                  </LocationInfo>
                  <Value>16</Value>
              </BandReport>
          </Report>

       Reading location from stdin.

          $ cat coordinates.txt
          443020 3748359
          441197 3749005
          443852 3747743

          $ cat coordinates.txt | gdallocationinfo -geoloc utmsmall.tif
          Report:
            Location: (38P,49L)
            Band 1:
              Value: 214
          Report:
            Location: (7P,38L)
            Band 1:
              Value: 107
          Report:
            Location: (52P,59L)
            Band 1:
              Value: 148
