Yann, About all I can recommend is the vrt format tutorial, http://www.gdal.org/gdal_vrttut.html, gdal, data model http://www.gdal.org/gdal_datamodel.html, and driver tutorial, http://www.gdal.org/gdal_drivertut.html , etc in the gdal online documentation. You might look at the existing gdal/GRAS

Thank you Doug, yes r.patch is a good alternative, but it means writing to disk etc. Was more thinking of a display memory thingy. Been thinking about the virtual rasters indeed, maybe will have a look, any C code page you could direct me to? Cheers, Yann On 20 March 2013 05:39, Newcomb, Doug

Yann, If I have a large number of layers, I usually do it from a command line or with a script. I done r.patch with over 100 layers in one command ( before I discovered gdalbuildvirt :-)) Doug On Tue, Mar 19, 2013 at 4:36 AM, Vaclav Petras wrote: > On 19 March 2013 09:31, Yann Chemin wrote: >

2013-03-19 Thread Yann Chemin
I am dealing with hourly Microwave data that are not covering the whole World in each layer. To have a decent presentation map of the data, I'd like to get a set (say 30-50 layers) displayed in one go. OK I could do it with the png driver in a script (which is what it may eventually become), but
