Parameters

Label	Имя	Тип	Описание
Input layer	INPUT	[raster]	The input raster
Clipping extent	EXTENT	[extent]	Extent that should be used for the output raster. Only pixels within the specified bounding box will be included in the output.

Additional creation options Optional	OPTIONS	[string] Default: „“	For adding one or more creation options that control the raster to be created (colors, block size, file compression…). For convenience, you can rely on predefined profiles (see GDAL driver options section). For Batch Process: separate multiple options with a pipe character (|).
