GDAL Utilities

With GDAL Python libraries, several utilities are available. The complete list is at: https://gdal.org/programs/

Python can call them as command-line tools using the subprocess module. To run a utility, it is necessary to provide the full path to the executable. The shell option allows you to capture the output string from the command.

>>> import subprocess
>>> cmd = r"C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\osgeo\gdalinfo.exe raster.tif"
>>> shell = subprocess.check_output(cmd, shell=True)
>>> print(shell)
