Creates an input geometry (IGM) file from a raster

1	raster_to_IGM(x)

`x`	Raster* The raster containing the geographic information to be used as the basis for the IGM.

This function produces a two-band brick where the pixel values for the first band are the geographic x-coordinates, and the pixel values for the second band are the geographic y-coordinates of the corresponding pixels in the input Raster* file.
