    3232    1) '''ST_AsRaster''' takes a geometry and converts it to a raster.

    34     2) '''ST_Interpolate''' takes a point (e.g. filtered lidar points) or line geometry (e.g. digitized topo lines) coverage to interpolate pixels values between geometries. There are numerous methods of interpolation and it would nice to have a generic method so we can use all of them, but we’re first targeting bilinear interpolation, which will fill most needs and lay the ground for other methods.

    36     3) '''ST_AsDensity''' takes a point or line geometry coverage and first assign a count of those features to every pixels of a raster coverage and then apply a smoothing filter (using the existing one raster version of neighbour ST_MapAlgebra). Density functions  allow summarizing or simplifying a point or line dataset.
