Wanted auto split and create DEMs

June 11, 2020

…and for many other operations.

For master AOI:

  • divide into grid of X by X units
  • for each tile: expand poly by margin%
  • generate DEM tiles
  • clip all tiles by initial poly size
  • merge/mosaic all clipped tiles
  • erase intermediate

Raster processing is much faster in squares. Optimise the grids, maybe a "least squares" approach?

Where is the sweet spot in raster dimension size for "most done at once" conjunction with "fastest processing"?

Why hasn't this been done already?
