  • identity - default function required in a mosaic dataset if there is no other function
  • colorspace_converstion - converts the color model of a three-band unsigned 8-bit images from HSV or RGB, or vice versa
  • grayscale - converts a multi-band image into a single-band grayscale image
  • pansharpen - enhances spatial resolution of a multi-band image by fusing with higher-resolution panchromatic image
  • spectral_conversion - applies a matrix to affect the spectral values output by a multi-band image
  • raster_calculator - allows you to call all existing math functions for building expressions
