from which the data are read. Spatial subsets and under-sampling are
possible) through the parameter of the method.</p>
<p>A <a class="reference internal" href="#epr.Raster" title="epr.Raster"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">Raster</span></code></a> is an object that allows direct access to data of a
certain portion of the ENVISAT <a class="reference internal" href="#epr.Product" title="epr.Product"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">Product</span></code></a> that are read into the
it. Such a portion is called the source. The complete ENVISAT
<a class="reference internal" href="#epr.Product" title="epr.Product"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">Product</span></code></a> can be much greater than the source.
One can move the <a class="reference internal" href="#epr.Raster" title="epr.Raster"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">Raster</span></code></a> over the complete ENVISAT
<a class="reference internal" href="#epr.Product" title="epr.Product"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">Product</span></code></a> and read in turn different parts
(always of the size of the source) of it into the <a class="reference internal" href="#epr.Raster" title="epr.Raster"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">Raster</span></code></a>.
The source is specified by the parameters <em>height</em> and <em>width</em>.</p>
<p>A typical example is a processing in blocks. Lets say, a block
has 64x32 pixel. Then, my source has a width of 64 pixel and a
height of 32 pixel.</p>
<p>Another example is a processing of complete image lines. Then,
my source has a widths of the complete product (for example 1121
for a MERIS RR product), and a height of 1). One can loop over
all blocks read into the <a class="reference internal" href="#epr.Raster" title="epr.Raster"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">Raster</span></code></a> and process it.</p>
<p>In addition, it is possible to defined a sub-sampling step for
a <a class="reference internal" href="#epr.Raster" title="epr.Raster"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">Raster</span></code></a>. This means, that the source is not read 1:1 into
the <a class="reference internal" href="#epr.Raster" title="epr.Raster"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">Raster</span></code></a>, but that only every 2nd or 3rd pixel is read.
This step can be set differently for the across track (source_step_x)
and along track (source_step_y) directions.</p>
