gdalwarp: Crop a raster dataset by using specific coordinates.

gdalwarp

$ gdalwarp -te ${min_x} ${min_y} ${max_x} ${max_y} -te_srs ${EPSG:4326} ${path-to-input-tif} ${path-to-output-tif}

The command you provided is using the GDAL (Geospatial Data Abstraction Library) tool called "gdalwarp" to perform a reprojection and cropping operation on a raster image.

Here is a breakdown of the command:

gdalwarp: This is the command-line tool for warping, reprojecting, and cropping raster datasets.
-te ${min_x} ${min_y} ${max_x} ${max_y}: This option sets the output image's "te" or target extent. It specifies the bounding box coordinates of the desired output extent in the format of minimum x, minimum y, maximum x, and maximum y.
-te_srs ${EPSG:4326}: This option specifies the coordinate system or spatial reference system (SRS) of the target extent. In this case, it is using the EPSG code 4326, which corresponds to the WGS84 geographic coordinate system commonly used for latitude and longitude.
${path-to-input-tif}: This is the path or file location of the input raster image that you want to reproject and crop.
${path-to-output-tif}: This is the path or file location where you want to save the output file after applying the reprojection and cropping.

To use this command, you need to replace ${min_x}, ${min_y}, ${max_x}, ${max_y}, ${EPSG:4326}, ${path-to-input-tif}, and ${path-to-output-tif} with the actual values or paths specific to your use case.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
