   This algorithm computes basic statistics from the values in a given band of the raster layer.
 
+qgis:rasterize: >
+  This algorithm rasterizes map canvas content.
+
+  A map theme can be selected to render a predetermined set of layers with a defined style for each layer.
+
+  Alternatively, a single layer can be selected if not map theme is set.
+
+  If neither map theme nor the layer is set, the current map content will be rendered.
+
+  The minimum extent entered will internally be extended to be a multiple of the tile size.

 qgis:refactorfields: >
   This algorithm allows editing the structure of the attributes table of a vector layer. Fields can be modified in their type and name, using a fields mapping.
