-    **What it does**
+
+        This tool converts a CSV list of points to a binary image by rasterizing the point coordinates.
 
-    Converts CSV point file to binary image.
+        The created image is a single-channel image with 16 bits per pixel (unsigned integer).
+        The points are rasterized with value 32767 (white).
+        Pixels not corresponding to any points in the CSV are assigned the value 0 (black).
