Name

ST_ValueCount — Returns a set of records containing a pixel band value and count of the number of pixels in a given band of a raster (or a raster coverage) that have a given set of values. If no band is specified defaults to band 1. By default nodata value pixels are not counted. and all other values in the pixel are output and pixel band values are rounded to the nearest integer.

Synopsis

Description

Returns a set of records with columns value count which contain the pixel band value and count of pixels in the raster tile or raster coverage of selected band.

If no band is specified nband defaults to 1. If no searchvalues are specified, will return all pixel values found in the raster or raster coverage. If one searchvalue is given, will return an integer instead of records denoting the count of pixels having that pixel band value

[Note]

If exclude_nodata_value is set to false, will also count pixels with no data.
