Clipping tiff image with a bounding box with GDAL in Java

Question

Since GDAL 2.1 GDAL and OGR utilities can be used as library functions, so this task is incredibly simple now:

from osgeo import gdal

ds = gdal.Open('original.tif')
ds = gdal.Translate('new.tif', ds, projWin = [-75.3, 5.5, -73.5, 3.7])
ds = None

Is there a similar library in Java to replace gdal_translate.exe call?

Answer 1

You can use translate function in two ways

public static Dataset Translate​(java.lang.String dest,
                            Dataset dataset,
                            TranslateOptions translateOptions,
                            ProgressCallback callback)

and

public static Dataset Translate​(java.lang.String dest,
                            Dataset dataset,
                            TranslateOptions translateOptions)
