NAME

       gdalmanage - 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 operating 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.fi

   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
