  • Ticket #246 – Description

    v1 v2  
    11A function which returns information about an array in the database would be very useful. The information we can extract right now is limited to:
    22 * array dimensionality and extents
    3  * array type with `--type` to rasql
     3 * array type by specifying `--type` to rasql
    44
    55Further info that would be highly useful:
    6  * tiling scheme and configuration, number of tiles
    7  * the index used
    8  * storage format
     6 * ''tiling scheme'' and configuration, number of tiles
     7 * the ''index'' used
     8 * ''storage format''
    99
    1010This could be implemented as an `info` function, which similarly to `RAS_COLLECTIONNAMES` returns a char array with the above (and possibly further) information.

     12Another function could be ''size'', for getting the size in bytes of an array. Often arrays are only partially materialized, so this would be useful information.
