thanks Frank.
adding "self.balanced_ds = None" seems to do the trick.

Shawn,
I'm not sure of any reason the script shouldn't work properly. But I
will note that aspects of the TIFF file are only written out when the
file is closed. You may find it helpful to do "self.balanced_ds = None"
at the end so that python will release the dataset and it can be closed.
I'm not sure of what environment you are running your script in.
Normally
at script end this would happen anyways.
Best regards,
