<title>Description</title>
- <para>Returns the union of a set of raster tiles into a single raster composed of at least one band. If <varname>nband</varname> is not specified, band 1 is assumed. The resulting raster's extent is the extent of the whole set. In the case of intersection, the resulting value is defined by <varname>uniontype</varname> which is one of the following: LAST (default), FIRST, MIN, MAX, COUNT, SUM, MEAN, RANGE.</para>
