    RasterBand rasterBandByName = rasterDataset.GetBandByName(sBandName);
    var index = rasterDataset.GetBandIndex(sBandName);
    
    // Get a RasterBand from the raster dataset
    RasterBand rasterBand = rasterDataset.GetBand(0);
    
    // Get the RasterBandDefinition from the raster band.
    RasterBandDefinition rasterBandDefinition = rasterBand.GetDefinition();
    // Get the name of the raster band from the raster band.
    string bandName = rasterBandDefinition.GetName();
