Name

ST_Max4ma — Raster processing function that calculates the maximum pixel value in a neighborhood.

Synopsis

float8 ST_Max4ma(float8[][] matrix, text nodatamode, text[] VARIADIC args);

double precision ST_Max4ma(double precision[][][] value, integer[][] pos, text[] VARIADIC userargs);

Description

Calculate the maximum pixel value in a neighborhood of pixels.

For Variant 2, a substitution value for NODATA pixels can be specified by passing that value to userargs.

[Note]

Variant 1 is a specialized callback function for use as a callback parameter to ST_MapAlgebraFctNgb.

[Note]

Variant 2 is a specialized callback function for use as a callback parameter to ST_MapAlgebra (callback function version).

[Warning]

Use of Variant 1 is discouraged since ST_MapAlgebraFctNgb has been deprecated as of 2.1.0.

Availability: 2.0.0

Enhanced: 2.1.0 Addition of Variant 2
