<div dir="ltr">I have a drone raster file which I want to use for some calculation.<div>Before the calculation, I need to loose some extreme values.</div><div>I want to do something like a percentile calculation where you get all values, order them and loose the top 10%.</div><div>For this, I need to get all values first which can be slow when using a large file.</div><div><br></div><div>I looked at the statistics (band.GetStatistics) but that doesn't work well.</div><div>I thought I could use 2 times the standard deviation added to the mean to get roughly 97%.</div><div>But with these statistics:</div><div><div><font face="monospace, monospace"> STATISTICS_MAXIMUM=33.186080932617</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace"> STATISTICS_MEAN=24.840205979603</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace"> STATISTICS_MINIMUM=1.5951598882675</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace"> STATISTICS_STDDEV=4.7285348016053</font></div><div>Mean + 2*std is larger than the max.</div><div><br></div><div>So I moved to the histogram.
