Application for converting between geospatial raster formats.
- gdal >= 3.1
- Python >= 3.6
geoconverter
is an application built for simple conversion between geospatial raster formats. It leverages gdal for handling the geospatial rasters and a fork of cesium-terrain-builder for cesium terrain formats.
- Correctly handles dtype conversion via correctly checking the min and max of raster bands and rescaling appropriately. This is possible via
gdal_translate
but you will need to manually find the min and max of the raster bands and specify it via the -scale parameter. Geoconverter does this automatically. - Supports cesium terrain formats. Using the cesium-terrain-builder (fork), geoconverter is also able to convert DEM rasters to cesium compatible terrain and quantized mesh formats.
- Supports percentile contrast enhancement.
- Provides a simple GUI.

The author would like to thank all the contributors to the gdal library and to @homme and @ahuarte47 for their work on Cesium Terrain Builder and quantized-mesh support respectively.
