In rgdal: Bindings for the 'Geospatial' Data Abstraction Library

Convert RGB three band to single band colour table

Description

This function converts a three-band GDALReadOnlyDataset into a single band of colour indices as a GDALTransientDataset.

Usage

RGB2PCT(x, band, driver.name = 'MEM', ncolors = 256, set.ctab = TRUE)

Arguments

x	a three-band GDALReadOnlyDataset object
band	a vector of numbers, recycled up to 3 in length
driver.name	default MEM
ncolors	a number of colours between 2 and 256
set.ctab	default TRUE, when the dithered dataset handle is returned, otherwise a list of the dataset and the PCT colour table

Value

The value returned is a either GDALTransientDataset or a list of a GDALTransientDataset and a colour table.
