reproject_raster
Reproject raster datasets to different coordinate reference systems for accurate geospatial analysis and compatibility across GIS applications.
Instructions
Reproject a raster dataset to a new CRS and save the result.
Parameters:
source: local path or HTTPS URL of the source raster.
target_crs: target CRS string (e.g., "EPSG:4326").
destination: local filesystem path for the reprojected raster.
resampling: resampling method: "nearest", "bilinear", "cubic", etc.

Implementation Reference
- The primary handler function implementing the reproject_raster tool using rasterio's reproject functionality. Handles CRS conversion, PROJ conflicts, and writes output raster.
