I am working on a script in which I am rasterising a vector using Rasterio.

When I try to write the raster to a tif file, my cluster runs out of memory and crashes about 30 seconds after the job starts.

Is there a more memory friendly way in which I can save this as a tif file using Rasterio?

My code is below:

with rasterio.open( os.path.join(dir, filename), "w", driver="GTiff", transform=raster.transform, dtype=rasterio.float32, count=1, crs=raster.crs, width=raster.width, height=raster.height) as dst: dst.write(array, indexes = 1)

You could use rioxarray (library that mixes rasterio and xarray) to chunk your input data and write it using dask.
