[gdal-dev] Re:[FWTools] GDALRasterizeGeometries() and Python

[Matthieu Rigal]

Hi Frank and GDAL-dev team,

By reading the following message and unsuccessfully searching for 
documentation and possibilities to rasterize geometries, I would be pleased 
to know if the Python bindings for GDALRasterizeGeometries() are still 
somehow planned.

If no bindings are planned is there another work-around than invoking the 
utilities from the shell to mask raster data from vector data, within gdal or 
within numpy (after ReadAsArray) ?

Best regards,
Matthieu

Travis,

I have checked, and can confirm that the rasterize geometries function
is not currently exposed in Python at all.  I've been adding bindings for
some other algorithms this week, and I'll look at adding one for this too,
though I think it may be a bit tricky.

Best regards,
