Rasterio Documentation
======================
Rasterio is for Python programmers and command line users
who want to read, write and manipulate geospatial raster datasets.
Rasterio employs GDAL_ under the hood for file I/O and raster formatting.
Its functions typically accept and return Numpy ndarrays.
Rasterio is designed to make working with geospatial raster data more productive and more fun.
