[Qgis-developer] Raster resampling suggestion

[Nick Dolezal]

Hey Marco,

Here's the code I have for a bilinear-based implementation (attached),
though I've omitted the actual NN and bilinear resampling code itself for
brevity.  This does have a number of implementation-specific assumptions
which would need to be reworked for the general case.  (the general case in
GIS is hard and makes my brain bleed.)  So it's not really close to the
point of being ready for a pull request.

It could be adapted to work on RGBA output, though with some modifications
mostly involving using the alpha channel with a NN resample in place of the
NODATA values.

It should be all ANSI C with no external dependencies. (except for one
irrelevant Accelerate framework call)

Hope this is useful -- let me know if anything else is needed.
