Special Pixels: SETNULLRANGE

Description

If this option is used input raw pixels below minimum and above maximum will be converted to LRS and HRS respectively. Otherwise pixels in the input raw file will be left unchanged in most cases. For example, importing a raw 8-bit file and outputing to a 16-bit or 32-bit real will cause 0 and 255 to be actual values. If left as 8-bit then 0 will be NULL and 255 will be HRS.
