BTW Peter,
in your site (http://kahlua.eecs.jacobs-university.de/trac/rasdaman/wiki/WhyRasdaman) you say: "First and foremost, it (PostGIS WKT Raster) does not support tiling (partitioning) of raster arrays." This statement is false since WKT Raster actually does support tiling of large rasters. You can partition any raster coverage by importing it as separate tiles or by using the -k option of gdal2wktraster.py. Each tile become a separate row in the table and the whole table is the coverage. The table is spatially indexed using the PostgreSQL GiST index.
I think it would be just fair if you could rectify this statement.
Thanks,
Pierre

Pierre-
rasdaman per se is domain agnostic - you can just as well maintain human brain images (as we did). The petascope layer, which is part of the distro, adds geo semantics by providing OGC interfaces.
PostgreSQL integration is not yet done, we are working on this; same for GDAL / MapServer.

Peter,
Are rasters in rasdaman georeferenced? How do I convert my vectorial PostGIS points coordinates into rasdaman coordinates? Do I have to do all the math myself?

let's see. First, I would not store 100k raster points in the relational table as its terribly inefficient. We do have input data formats, though, which are similar to what a PG dump of such a table would deliver. We import this into an array and then can query it. Import via rasql or through an import tool which internally generates rasql calls.
Then, for corner points (x0,y0) and (x1,y1) we retrieve as
select png( M[x0:y1,y0:y1] ) from MyMap as M
...in PNG format via the rasql cmd line utility or the C++ or Java API.
Alternatively, sending this this query over the API gets you the data into main memory ready for nested for loops = in the main memory format of your client:
select M[x0:y1,y0:y1] from MyMap as M

So if I already have a table of, say 100 000 points, uploaded in PostGIS, how do I use rasdaman to get the raster values of the pixels located under the points?

Who is proven? Well, running a dozen-TB seamless mosaic on PostgreSQL for many years, having online-demos available since years, etc... you decide, in comparison.

I would suggest you split your raster with something like GDAL gdal_retile.py and then import your tiles into a single WKT Raster table following the instruction provided in our tutorial. Each tile will be stored in a column cell of type RASTER similar to the PostGIS GEOMETRY type.
As I said previously you can then query the raster in SQL like this:
SELECT ST_Value(rast, ST_Geomfromtext('Point(-78.1 58.1)', 4326))
FROM srtm_tiled_100x100
WHERE ST_Intersects(rast::geometry, ST_Geomfromtext('Point(-78.1 58.1)', 4326)) AND whatever you want.
Basically WKT Raster is the first true SQL interface with which is is simple to do such things... It's proven, any-size, cloud-scalable, and open source :) Maybe not that prooven. But who is?
There is also rasdaman but I don't think you can use SQL. It would be nice if you could compare both... I can't find time for this. Jorge has started comparing PostGIS WKT Raster with Oracle Georaster though.

yes... with png worked... but it was a different png (a smaller one)...
so I've converted the ESRI into a png and tried to import it... and it didn't work neither...
so this is the situation:
A have huge rusters (from 150kx150k).. In Oracle I would just load it (the huge raster) in a single row of a GeoRaster table and then Oracle GeoRaster would split it in small tiles and store one tile per line of another table (Raster Data Table)... then I can run a query similar to this one: SELECT getcellvalue(t.rastercolumn,x,y) from GeoRasterTable t where t.id<http://t.id>=1; and GeoRaster will query automatically the spatial indexes and the Raster Data Table and it will find the right tile etc...
I do not know how WKTRaster works.... If I cannot import a such big image, of course I can split it in smaller georeferenced tiles... (how?)... but.... My main question is: after that, how will the table look like ? how can I do the same query (where id=1 or where name="UK" etc...) ?

Wait. You first said the png was working. Now it's not? Did you try gdal_translate with the ESRI grid? For sure I haven't test yet with such big rasters. Is this the result of a merge or all your original raster are all this size? The point is that with WKT Raster you don't have to merge your raster first into a gigantic raster in order to get it store in a unique table like with Oracle Spatial.

Hi Pierre,
Does gdal2wktraster.py have any limitation on the maximum number of columnsxrows ?
in my case, my raster is 107759 x 168633...
gdal works well:

Hi Sebastian,
I can convert ESRI Grid file to .sql without problem using gdal2wktraster.py and the same parameters as you. I can do both integer and floating point rasters.
Maybe this is a GDAL problem. Try to convert it using gdal_translate (to tiff for example). This would be a better test than just gdalinfo.
Could you provide us with a file sample?
