Raster Clip

Clip raster data with a vector boundary and download the clipped GeoTIFF result.

Raster file

Upload the raster dataset to be clipped.

Drag and drop or click to upload

Clip boundary

Upload a vector boundary file such as GeoJSON, Shapefile, KML, KMZ, or GeoPackage.

Drag and drop files or folders, or click to upload

Coordinate system check

The raster and clip boundary must use the same coordinate system. Reprojection is not available yet.

About

Raster Clip cuts a raster down to a vector boundary - a city outline, a study area, a farm parcel - and returns a GeoTIFF containing only the pixels inside that polygon. Both the raster and the boundary stay in the browser; the cutting itself is executed by GDAL WASM on your own machine, free and without any upload.

It is the standard first move when regional data must become local data: trimming a national land-cover raster to a province, cutting a DEM to a watershed, or extracting one country from a continental mosaic so that every downstream step runs faster on a much smaller file.

How to Use

  1. 1

    Upload the raster (any GDAL-supported format), then upload the clip boundary - GeoJSON, KML/KMZ, GeoPackage, or a zipped Shapefile; multiple boundary files can be loaded together.

  2. 2

    Check the two coordinate systems shown on screen - the tool reads the raster CRS and the boundary CRS and warns you when they mismatch, so reproject one side first if they differ.

  3. 3

    Run the clip and download the cropped GeoTIFF, which keeps the original resolution and pixel values of the source raster.

FAQ

QWhich vector formats work as the clip boundary?

AGeoJSON (.geojson or .json), KML and KMZ, GeoPackage, and Shapefile. For a Shapefile, upload the .shp together with its .dbf, .shx, and .prj sidecar files - or zip the whole set and upload the .zip, which is the safest route.

QWhat happens if the raster and the boundary use different CRS?

AThe tool displays both coordinate systems and reports the mismatch instead of silently producing a misaligned result. Reproject the raster - or the boundary - so both share one CRS, then clip again.

QAre pixels outside the polygon deleted?

AThe output raster covers the boundary's bounding box, and pixels outside the polygon itself are set to nodata. Rasters are always rectangular grids, so the hole pattern of your area is preserved through the nodata mask rather than the file shape.
