Abstract
QGIS already has an integrated raster calculator, where user can enter an expression that will apply raster algebra functions to one or more input rasters and produce a new raster file. This project aim is to develop a new virtual raster data provider that can help to use the raster calculator without creating a lot of files. It will be possible to perform the computation on the fly when map gets rendered. It will be therefore possible for the users to see the results of raster algebra expression that has been typed without the creation of derived raster files. For example, it should be possible to compute the NDVI index on-the-fly.
