Background:
reproject()
can take an array and return an array. GDAL's warper requires input and output GDALDatasetH, so we construct them using the GDAL "MEM" driver, pointing at the memory location of two arrays.What this PR does is add alpha bands to those datasets when the inputs and outputs are masked arrays. For input, 3-D array masks are reduced to a 2-D array via
logical_or()
(because GDAL needs a single alpha mask channel). For output, the alpha mask band is repeated over the number of image bands.I suspect the approach could be made more efficient. Copying is required in some cases because the "MEM" driver needs a precise memory layout.
Resolves #2575.
