Drops PostGIS raster constraints that refer to a raster table column that were added by AddRasterConstraints. Useful if you need to load more data or update your raster column data. You do not need to do this if you want to get rid of a raster table or a raster column.
To drop a raster table use the standard
DROP TABLE mytable
To drop just a raster column and leave the rest of the table, use standard SQL
ALTER TABLE mytable DROP COLUMN rast
the table will disappear from the raster_columns
catalog if the column or table is dropped. However if only the constraints are dropped, the
raster column will still be listed in the raster_columns
catalog, but there will be no other information about it aside from the column name and table.
