DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the Dan's GDAL Scripts set of commands. You can get a synthetic description of accepted options and command line arguments by using -h option with every command. This set of tools is based on the GDAL/OGR library and provides some useful simple manipulation of geo rasters and satellite data. Do not buggy GDAL team for possible issues with this software, this is a contributed set of programs.
