Hi, i would like to copy some files from a directory by using an ESRI shape file containing the name and the file extention.

We have a directory with over 300+ aerial photos of our town. Every photo has an unique name. Using an georeferenced Esri shapefile of a specific area we want to copy the photos that are coverd by the shapefile to another directory.

I used a feature reader that reads the directory. Apparently the feature reader reads the directory with the rasters and loads all the rasters into its memory. The scanning process of 300+ files (800mb each) takes very long and uses a lot of memory. This is a problem, we are short of memory. That is why i would like to use a selection polygon to select only the 4 rasters that i need and copy them to a different directory.

How can this be done?
