tif file reading issue or concern

Open vietbuiminh opened this issue 1 month ago • 2 comments

I was trying to the tutorial or instruction when working with tif file and it works when I used the example world.tif provided but when I download the file from Natural Earth and attempted to read in the file and it does not show more information from the dataset.

I double checked on QGIS on the downloaded tif file and it appears to have all color brand information

Anyone that ran into this issue and resolved? I just want a higher resolution to raster on my map

humm i think a work around this is by opening the file in QGIS and export the file with assigned CRS in it. It ended up working.

Hmm it is hard to say, perhaps the first dataset was not written by GDAL and missing some metadata.

I see it shows LIBERTIFF/GeoTIFF as the driver that is used. As of https://github.com/yeesian/ArchGDAL.jl/pull/476 if should not default to that driver, since it gave some issues, see https://github.com/yeesian/ArchGDAL.jl/issues/475. Are you still seeing that on the latest release of ArchGDAL?
