Grid Collection Calculator


Description

The Grid Collection Calculator creates a new grid collection combining existing ones using the given formula. It is assumed that all input grid collections have the same number of grid layers. The variables in the formula begin with the letter 'g' followed by a position index, which corresponds to the order of the grid collections in the input grid collection list (i.e.: g1, g2, g3, ... correspond to the first, second, third, ... grid collection in list). Grid collections from other systems than the default one can be addressed likewise using the letter 'h' (h1, h2, h3, ...), which correspond to the 'Grid collections from different Systems' list. Example: sin(g1) * g2 + 2 * h1 To make complex formulas look more intuitive you have the option to use shortcuts. Shortcuts are defined following the formula separated by semicolons as 'shortcut = expression'. Example: ifelse(lt(NDVI, 0.4), nodata(), NDVI); NDVI = (g1 - g2) / (g1 + g2) The following operators are available for the formula definition:

+Addition
-Subtraction
*Multiplication
/Division
abs(x)Absolute Value
mod(x, y)Returns the floating point remainder of x/y
int(x)Returns the integer part of floating point value x
sqr(x)Square
sqrt(x)Square Root
exp(x)Exponential
pow(x, y)Returns x raised to the power of y
x ^ yReturns x raised to the power of y
ln(x)Natural Logarithm
log(x)Base 10 Logarithm
pi()Returns the value of Pi
sin(x)Sine, expects radians
cos(x)Cosine, expects radians
tan(x)Tangent, expects radians
asin(x)Arcsine, returns radians
acos(x)Arccosine, returns radians
atan(x)Arctangent, returns radians
atan2(x, y)Arctangent of x/y, returns radians
min(x, y)Returns the minimum of values x and y
max(x, y)Returns the maximum of values x and y
gt(x, y)Returns true (1), if x is greater than y, else false (0)
x > yReturns true (1), if x is greater than y, else false (0)
lt(x, y)Returns true (1), if x is less than y, else false (0)
x < yReturns true (1), if x is less than y, else false (0)
eq(x, y)Returns true (1), if x equals y, else false (0)
x = yReturns true (1), if x equals y, else false (0)
and(x, y)Returns true (1), if both x and y are true (i.e. not 0)
or(x, y)Returns true (1), if at least one of both x and y is true (i.e. not 0)
ifelse(c, x, y)Returns x, if condition c is true (i.e. not 0), else y
rand_u(x, y)Random number, uniform distribution with minimum x and maximum y
rand_g(x, y)Random number, Gaussian distribution with mean x and standard deviation y
xpos(), ypos()The coordinate (x/y) for the center of the currently processed cell
