Rasterize scalar fields

Post by ThomasRisto »

Hello !

Would it be possible to add a rasterizing tool that allows to ewport (tif or ascii) rasters the same way the height grid generation works but with a scalar field ?

We would :
- Select the scalar field
- Select the resolution
- Select an option between (min/max/median/average, ...)

And produce a raster grid containing the informations...

Thanks :)

I'm not sure to exactly understand the difference with the actual 'Rasterize' tool.

You already have an 'Interpolate scalar field(s)' checkbox that let you choose almost the same options (min/max/average) and when exporting the result to a raster you can choose to export 'All scalar fields'.

If you choose only this latter option when exporting to a raster file, only the scalar field(s) will be exported (i.e. not the height). This way you'll get as output a raster with only the SF(s) as 'band(s)'.
