Rastereasy Library
Overview
The rastereasy library provides functions for the easy manipulation (resampling, cropping, reprojection, tiling, …)
and visualization (color composites, spectra) of geospatial images (*.tif, *.jp2, *.shp, …).. It simplifies geospatial workflows with efficiency.
A geospatial image is read and represented within the Geoimage
class, which contains most of the
required functions for processing and visualization. Other classes are related to InferenceTools
(some
functions related to clustering, domain adaptation, fusion) shpfiles
or rasters
(to deal with shapefiles
and rasters respectively)
The goal of rastereasy is to simplify geospatial workflows by offering tools for:
Reading and processing raster and vector files.
Resampling, cropping, reprojecting, stacking, … raster images.
Creating visualizations such as color composites or spectral analyses.
Use (train / apply) some classical Machine Learning algorithms.
Provide some tools for late fusion of classifications (Dempster-Shafer).
Provide some tools for some ML algorithms, basic domain adaptation, …
…
Note
This module requires external dependencies such as rasterio, numpy, and matplotlib.

Some interesting functions
Below are some of the primary functions provided by the module:
Resampling Function
- rastereasy.Geoimage.resampling(self, final_resolution, dest_name=None, inplace=False, method='cubic_spline', update_history=True)
Resample the image to a different resolution.
This method changes the spatial resolution of the image by resampling the pixel values. The resampling process creates a new grid of pixels at the target resolution and interpolates values from the original grid.
Parameters
- final_resolutionfloat
The target resolution in the image’s coordinate system units (typically meters or degrees). A smaller value results in a higher-resolution (larger) image.
- dest_namestr, optional
Path to save the resampled image. If None, the image is not saved. Default is None.
- inplacebool, default False
If False, return a copy. Otherwise, do the resampling in place and return None.
- methodstr, optional
Resampling algorithm to use. Options include:
‘cubic_spline’ (default): High-quality interpolation, good for continuous data
‘nearest’: Nearest neighbor interpolation, preserves original values, best for categorical data
‘bilinear’: Linear interpolation between points, faster than cubic
‘cubic’: Standard cubic interpolation
‘lanczos’: High-quality downsampling
‘average’: Takes the average of all contributing pixels, useful for downsampling
- update_historybool, optional
Whether to update the image processing history. Default is True.
Returns
- Geoimage
A copy of the resampled image or None if inplace=True
Examples
>>> # Resample to 30 meter resolution >>> image_resampled = image.resampling(30) >>> print(f"New resolution: {image.resolution}") >>> >>> # Resample using nearest neighbor (best for categorical data) >>> classified_image_resampled = classified_image.resampling(10, method='nearest') >>> >>> # Resample and save the result >>> image_resampled = image.resampling(20, dest_name='resampled_20m.tif') >>> >>> >>> # Resample directly the image to 30 meter resolution >>> image.resampling(30, inplace=True) >>> print(f"New resolution: {image.resolution}") >>> >>> # Resample directly the image using nearest neighbor (best for categorical data) >>> classified_image.resampling(10, method='nearest', inplace=True) >>> >>> # Resample and save the result >>> image.resampling(20, dest_name='resampled_20m.tif', inplace=True)
Notes
When upsampling (to higher resolution), no new information is created;
the function only interpolates between existing pixels - When downsampling (to lower resolution), information is lost - The choice of resampling method is important: - For continuous data (e.g., elevation, reflectance): ‘cubic_spline’, ‘bilinear’, or ‘cubic’ - For categorical data (e.g., land classifications): ‘nearest’ or ‘mode’ - This method changes the dimensions (shape) of the image
Projection Function
- rastereasy.Geoimage.reproject(self, projection='EPSG:3857', inplace=False, dest_name=None)
Reproject the image to a different coordinate reference system (CRS).
This method transforms the image to a new projection system, which changes how the image’s coordinates are interpreted. This can be useful for aligning data from different sources or preparing data for specific analyses.
Parameters
- projectionstr, optional
The target projection as an EPSG code or PROJ string. Examples:
“EPSG:4326”: WGS84 geographic (lat/lon)
“EPSG:3857”: Web Mercator (used by web maps)
“EPSG:32619”: UTM Zone 19N
Default is “EPSG:3857” (Web Mercator).
- inplacebool, default False
If False, return a copy. Otherwise, do reprojection in place and return None.
- dest_namestr, optional
Path to save the reprojected image. If None, the image is not saved. Default is None.
Returns
- Geoimage
The reprojected image or None if inplace=True
Examples
>>> # Reproject to WGS84 (latitude/longitude) >>> image_reprojected = image.reproject("EPSG:4326") >>> image_reprojected.info() # Shows new projection >>> >>> # Reproject to UTM Zone 17N and save >>> image_reprojected = image.reproject("EPSG:32617", dest_name="utm.tif") >>> >>> >>> # Reproject to WGS84 (latitude/longitude) and modify inplace the image >>> image.reproject("EPSG:4326", inplace=True) >>> image.info() # Shows new projection >>> >>> # Reproject to UTM Zone 17N and save >>> image.reproject("EPSG:32617", dest_name="utm.tif", inplace=True)
Notes
Reprojection can change the pixel values due to resampling
The dimensions of the image will typically change during reprojection
Common projection systems include:
EPSG:4326 - WGS84 geographic coordinates (latitude/longitude)
EPSG:3857 - Web Mercator (used by Google Maps, OpenStreetMap)
EPSG:326xx - UTM Zone xx North (projected coordinate system)
EPSG:327xx - UTM Zone xx South (projected coordinate system)
Cropping Function
- rastereasy.Geoimage.crop(self, deb_row_lon, end_row_lon, deb_col_lat, end_col_lat, dest_name=None, pixel=True, inplace=False)
Crop the image to a specified extent.
This method extracts a rectangular subset of the image, defined either by pixel coordinates or by geographic coordinates, and updates the current image to contain only the cropped region.
Parameters
- deb_row_lonint or float
Starting position: - If pixel=True: Starting row (y) coordinate - If pixel=False: Starting longitude coordinate
- end_row_lonint or float
Ending position: - If pixel=True: Ending row (y) coordinate - If pixel=False: Ending longitude coordinate
- deb_col_latint or float
Starting position: - If pixel=True: Starting column (x) coordinate - If pixel=False: Starting latitude coordinate
- end_col_latint or float
Ending position: - If pixel=True: Ending column (x) coordinate - If pixel=False: Ending latitude coordinate
- dest_namestr, optional
Path to save the cropped image. If None, the image is not saved. Default is None.
- inplacebool, default False
If False, return a copy. Otherwise, do cropping in place and return None.
- pixelbool, optional
Coordinate system flag: - If True: Coordinates are interpreted as pixel indices (row, col) - If False: Coordinates are interpreted as geographic coordinates (lon, lat) Default is True.
Returns
- Geoimage
A copy of the cropped image or None if inplace=True
Examples
>>> # Crop using pixel coordinates >>> original_shape = image.shape >>> image_crop = image.crop(100, 500, 200, 600) >>> print(f"Original shape: {original_shape}, New shape: {image_crop.shape}") >>> >>> # Crop using geographic coordinates >>> image_crop = image.crop(-122.5, -122.3, 37.8, 37.7, pixel=False) >>> image.visu() >>> >>> # Crop and save the result >>> image_crop = image.crop(100, 500, 200, 600, dest_name='cropped_area.tif') >>> >>> >>> # Crop using pixel coordinates >>> original_shape = image.shape >>> image.crop(100, 500, 200, 600, inplace=True) # inplace = True : modify directly the image >>> print(f"Original shape: {original_shape}, New shape: {image.shape}") >>> >>> # Crop using geographic coordinates >>> image.crop(-122.5, -122.3, 37.8, 37.7, pixel=False, inplace=True) >>> image.visu() >>> >>> # Crop and save the result >>> image.crop(100, 500, 200, 600, dest_name='cropped_area.tif', inplace=True)
Notes
The cropping operation changes the spatial extent of the image but preserves
the resolution and projection. - When using pixel coordinates, the format is (row_start, row_end, col_start, col_end). - When using geographic coordinates, the format is (lon_start, lon_end, lat_start, lat_end).
Machine Learning
- rastereasy.Geoimage.kmeans(self, n_clusters=4, bands=None, random_state=None, dest_name=None, standardization=True, nb_points=1000)
Perform K-means clustering on the image data.
This method performs an unsupervised classification using K-means clustering, which groups pixels with similar spectral characteristics into a specified number of clusters.
Parameters
- n_clustersint, optional
Number of clusters (classes) to create. Default is 4.
- bandslist of str or None, optional
List of bands to use for clustering. If None, all bands are used. Default is None.
- random_stateint or None, optional
Random seed for reproducible results. If None, results may vary between runs. Default is RANDOM_STATE (defined globally).
- dest_namestr, optional
Path to save the clustered image. If None, the image is not saved. Default is None.

- tuple
A tuple containing (kmeans_model, scaler) for reusing the model on other images
Examples
>>> # Basic K-means clustering with 5 clusters >>> classified, model = image.kmeans(n_clusters=5) >>> classified.visu(colorbar=True, cmap='viridis') >>> >>> # Cluster using only specific bands and save result >>> classified, model = image.kmeans( >>> n_clusters=3, bands=["NIR", "Red", "Green"], >>> dest_name="clusters.tif") >>> >>> # Apply same model to another image >>> other_classified = other_image.apply_ML_model(model)
Notes
Standardization is recommended, especially when bands have different ranges
The returned model can be used with apply_ML_model() on other images
- rastereasy.Geoimage.apply_ML_model(self, model, bands=None)
Apply a pre-trained machine learning model to the image.
This method applies a machine learning model (such as one created by kmeans()) to the image data, creating a new classified or transformed image.
Parameters

- bandslist of str or None, optional
List of bands to use as input for the model. If None, all bands are used. Default is None.
Returns
- Geoimage
A new Geoimage containing the model output
Examples
>>> # Train a model on one image and apply to another >>> classified, model = reference_image.kmeans(n_clusters=5) >>> new_classified = target_image.apply_ML_model(model) >>> new_classified.visu(colorbar=True, cmap='viridis') >>> >>> # Train on specific bands and apply to the same bands >>> _, model = image.kmeans(bands=["NIR", "Red"], n_clusters=3) >>> result = image.apply_ML_model(model, bands=["NIR", "Red"]) >>> result.save("classified.tif")
Notes
The model must have been trained on data with the same structure as what it’s being applied to (e.g., same number of bands)
If a scaler was used during training, it will be applied before prediction
This method is useful for:
Applying a classification model to new images
Ensuring consistent classification across multiple scenes
Time-series analysis with consistent classification
Band manipulation
- rastereasy.Geoimage.stack(self, im_to_stack, dtype=None, dest_name=None, inplace=False, reformat_names=False)
Stack bands from another image onto this image.
This method combines the bands from another image with the current image, modifying the current image to include all bands from both sources.
Parameters
- im_to_stackGeoimage
The image whose bands will be stacked onto this image. Should have the same spatial dimensions (rows, cols).
- dtypestr or None, optional
The data type for the stacked image. If None, an appropriate type is determined based on the types of both input images. Common values: ‘float64’, ‘float32’, ‘int32’, ‘uint16’, ‘uint8’. Default is None.
- dest_namestr, optional
Path to save the stacked image. If None, the image is not saved. Default is None.
- inplacebool, default False
If False, return a copy of the stacked image. Otherwise, do stacking in place and return None.
- reformat_namesbool, optional
If True, band names will be reset to a simple numeric format (“1”, “2”, “3”, …). If False, the function will preserve original band names where possible, adding suffixes if needed to resolve conflicts. Default is False.
Returns
- Geoimage
The image with additional bands or None if inplace=True
Raises
- ValueError
If the spatial dimensions of the images don’t match or an unknown dtype is specified.
Examples
>>> # Stack two images with different spectral bands >>> optical = Geoimage("optical.tif", names={'R': 1, 'G': 2, 'B': 3}) >>> thermal = Geoimage("thermal.tif", names={'T': 1}) >>> combined = optical.stack(thermal) >>> print(f"Combined bands: {list(combined.names.keys())}") >>> >>> # Stack and rename bands sequentially >>> combined = optical.stack(thermal, reformat_names=True) >>> print(f"After renaming: {list(combined.names.keys())}") >>> >>> # Stack with explicit data type >>> combined = optical.stack(thermal, dtype='float32', dest_name='combined.tif') >>> >>> # Stack in the image directly >>> optical.stack(thermal, reformat_names=True, inplace=True) >>> print(f"After renaming: {list(combined.names.keys())}")
Notes
The bands from both images are combined along the band dimension (axis 0).
Band naming conflicts are resolved automatically, adding suffixes if needed.
The spatial dimensions (rows, cols) of both images must match.
- rastereasy.Geoimage.reorder_bands(self, band_order, inplace=False)
Reorder the image bands according to the specified order.
This method changes the order of bands in the image based on the specified band_order parameter. The current image is modified in-place or in a new Geoimage.
Parameters
- band_orderlist or dict
The desired band order specification: - If list: A list of band names in the desired order Example: [‘NIR’, ‘Red’, ‘Green’, ‘Blue’] - If dict: A dictionary mapping band names to their desired positions (1-based) Example: {‘NIR’: 1, ‘Red’: 2, ‘Green’: 3, ‘Blue’: 4}
- inplacebool, default False
If False, return a copy. Otherwise, do reorder bands in place and return None.
Returns
- Geoimage
A copy of the image with reordered bands or None if inplace=True
Raises
- ValueError
If band_order is not a list or dictionary, or if it contains bands that don’t exist in the image.
Examples
>>> # Reorder bands using a list (most common usage) >>> image.info() # Shows original band order >>> image_reorder = image.reorder_bands(['B6', 'B5', 'B4']) >>> image_reorder.info() # Shows new band order >>> >>> # Directly reorder bands using a dictionary with explicit positions >>> image.reorder_bands({'NIR': 1, 'Red': 2, 'Green': 3}, inplace=True) >>> >>> # Reorder bands and save >>> image.reorder_bands(['R', 'G', 'B']).save('rgb_order.tif')
Notes
All bands in the image must be included in band_order if using a list.
If using a dictionary, bands not specified will be excluded.
The band indices in the result will be updated to match the new order.
- rastereasy.Geoimage.remove_bands(self, bands, inplace=False, reformat_names=False, dest_name=None)
Remove specified bands from the image.
This method modifies the current image by removing the specified bands. The remaining bands can be renamed sequentially or retain their original names.
Parameters
- bandsstr, list, int, or array-like
The bands to remove from the image. Format depends on band naming: - If using named bands: band name(s) as string(s) (e.g., ‘NIR’, [‘R’, ‘G’, ‘B’]) - If using indexed bands: band index/indices as int(s) or string(s) (e.g., 3, [‘1’, ‘4’, ‘7’])
- inplacebool, default False
If False, return a copy. Otherwise, do removing in place and return None.
- reformat_namesbool, optional
Band naming behavior after removal: - If True: Rename remaining bands sequentially as “1”, “2”, “3”, etc. - If False: Preserve original band names with their indices updated Default is False.
- dest_namestr, optional
Path to save the modified image. If None, the image is not saved. Default is None.
Returns
- Geoimage
The image with specified bands removed or None if inplace=True
Raises
- ValueError
If any specified band doesn’t exist in the image, or if removing all bands.
Examples
>>> # Remove a single band >>> original_bands = list(image.names.keys()) >>> image_removed = image.remove_bands('B4') >>> print(f"Original: {original_bands}, After removal: {list(image_removed.names.keys())}") >>> >>> # Remove multiple bands and rename sequentially >>> image_removed = image.remove_bands(['B1', 'B2'], reformat_names=True) >>> print(f"After renaming: {list(image_removed = .names.keys())}") >>> >>> # Remove bands and save the result >>> image_removed = image.remove_bands(['SWIR1', 'SWIR2'], dest_name='visible_only.tif') >>> >>> # Remove a single band >>> original_bands = list(image.names.keys()) >>> image.remove_bands('B4', inplace=True) >>> print(f"Original: {original_bands}, After removal: {list(image.names.keys())}") >>> >>> # Remove multiple bands and rename sequentially >>> image.remove_bands(['B1', 'B2'], reformat_names=True, inplace=True) >>> print(f"After renaming: {list(image.names.keys())}") >>> >>> # Remove bands and save the result >>> image.remove_bands(['SWIR1', 'SWIR2'], dest_name='visible_only.tif', inplace=True)
Notes
If reformat_names=False (default), band names are preserved but indices are updated.
If reformat_names=True, bands are renamed sequentially (1, 2, 3, …).
Access to numpy
- rastereasy.Geoimage.numpy_channel_first(self, bands=None)
Extract image data as a NumPy array in channel-first format.
This method returns a NumPy array representation of the image data with bands as the first dimension (bands, rows, cols), which is the format used by rasterio.
Parameters
- bandsstr, list of str, or None, optional
The bands to include in the output: - If None: Returns all bands - If a string: Returns a single specified band - If a list: Returns the specified bands in the given order Default is None.
Returns
- numpy.ndarray

Notes
This format (bands, rows, cols) is commonly used with rasterio and some other geospatial libraries. For libraries that expect channel-last format (like most image processing libraries), use numpy_channel_last() instead.
- rastereasy.Geoimage.numpy_channel_last(self, bands=None)
Extract image data as a NumPy array in channel-last format.
This method returns a NumPy array representation of the image data with bands as the last dimension (rows, cols, bands), which is the format used by most image processing libraries and frameworks.
Parameters
- bandsstr, list of str, or None, optional
The bands to include in the output: - If None: Returns all bands - If a string: Returns a single specified band - If a list: Returns the specified bands in the given order Default is None.
Returns
- numpy.ndarray
Image data as a NumPy array with shape (rows, cols, bands)
Examples

Notes
This format (rows, cols, bands) is commonly used with image processing libraries like OpenCV, scikit-image, PIL, and deep learning frameworks. For libraries that expect channel-first format (like rasterio), use numpy_channel_first() instead.

Raises
- ValueError
If the number of rows in the table doesn’t match the dimensions of the original image
Examples
>>> # Create a modified image from a processed table >>> table = image.numpy_table() >>> normalized = (table - table.mean()) / table.std() # Standardize >>> normalized_image = image.image_from_table(normalized) >>> normalized_image.visu() >>> >>> # Save the result >>> table = image.numpy_table(bands=["NIR", "R"]) >>> ndvi = np.zeros((table.shape[0], 1)) # Create single-band output >>> ndvi[:, 0] = (table[:, 0] - table[:, 1]) / (table[:, 0] + table[:, 1]) >>> ndvi_image = image.image_from_table(ndvi, names={"NDVI": 1}, dest_name="ndvi.tif")
Notes
The dimensions of the original image (rows, cols) are preserved, so the table must have exactly rows*cols rows. The number of bands can be different from the original image.

Returns
The image with adapted spectral characteristics or None if inplace=True
Examples
>>> # Basic spectral adaptation >>> image_adapt = image1.adapt(image2) >>> image_adapt.visu() # Now spectrally similar to image2 >>> >>> # Use specific transport method >>> image_adapt = image1.adapt(image2, mapping='sinkhorn', reg_e=0.01) >>> image_adapt.save("adapted_image.tif") >>> >>> # Adaptation using sample arrays >>> adapted_image = image1.adapt(tab_target, tab_source = tab_source, mapping='sinkhorn', reg_e=0.01) >>> >>> # Basic spectral adaptation and modify inplace the image >>> image1.adapt(image2, inplace=True) >>> image1.visu() # Now spectrally similar to image2
