v10 v11 32 32 ==== 1. The raster source approach ==== 33 33 34 The first approach is similar to what is found in most GIS package. The source points (or geometries) are converted to a raster of sources and this raster is passed to the function. The function iterates over the pixels (or over the source points???) assigning the distance to the nearest point (or assigning minimum values to pixels within a circle progressively growing around each point???).34 The first approach is similar to what is found in most GIS package.
