GDAL_FILLNODATA(1)

NAME
gdal_fillnodata - Fill raster regions by interpolation from edges.

SYNOPSIS

gdal_fillnodata [--help] [--help-general] [-q] [-md <max_distance>]
           [-si <smoothing_iterations>] [-o <name>=<value> [<name>=<value> ...]]
           [-mask <filename>] [-interp {inv_dist,nearest}] [-b <band>]
           [-of <gdal_format>] [-co <name>=<value>]
           <src_file> <dst_file>

DESCRIPTION

gdal_fillnodata fills selection regions (usually nodata areas) by interpolating from valid pixels around the edges of the area.

Additional details on the algorithm are available in the GDALFillNodata() docs.

NOTE: gdal_fillnodata is a Python utility, and is only available if GDAL Python bindings are available.

--help
    Show this help message and exit

--help-general
    Gives a brief usage message for the generic GDAL commandline options and exit.

-q  The script runs in quiet mode. The progress monitor is suppressed and routine messages are not displayed.

-md <max_distance>
    The maximum distance (in pixels) that the algorithm will search out for values to interpolate. The default is 100 pixels.

-si <smooth_iterations>
    The number of 3x3 average filter smoothing iterations to run after the interpolation to dampen artifacts. The default is zero smoothing iterations.

-o <name>=<value>
    Specify a special argument to the algorithm. Currently none are supported.

-b <band>
    The band to operate on, by default the first band is operated on.

-mask <filename>
    Use the first band of the specified file as a validity mask (zero is invalid, non-zero is valid).

-of <format>
    Select the output format. The default is GTiff -- GeoTIFF File Format. Use the short format name.

-interp {inv_dist,nearest}
    New in version 3.9.

    By default, pixels are interpolated using an inverse distance weighting (inv_dist). It is also possible to choose a nearest neighbour (nearest) strategy.

<srcfile>
    The source raster file used to identify target pixels. Only one band is used.

<dstfile>
    The new file to create with the interpolated result.
