a custom function similar to arcpy.RasterToNumPyArray #16

Closed Jwely closed 9 years ago

Having a custom programmed function to emulate arcmaps RasterToNumpyArray would be a big first step towards the ability to perform raster data analysis in a standalone python environment without commercial software.

dnppy now sets up gdal, which provides an open source alternative to the arcpy.RasterToNumPyArray and vice versa. It would be a large update to switch to a gdal based solution across all dnppy functions using the raster.to_numpy function, but a worthwhile one.
