2008.05.16 21:24 "32 bit samples", by Garry Petrie
I was wondering if anyone has experience with http://seamless.usgs.gov/website/seamless/viewer.htm This web app can produce geotiff files containing digital elevation data for any place in the world using data from the space shuttle SAR mission. The format of the tiff portion of the file contains 32 bit samples, not sure if they are longs or short floats. Using libtiff I get the message about not being able to handle 32bit samples from getimage. I know the web site produces good image files, as I have been able to view the files with AdobePS. I peaked at alpha 4.0 and it seems to have the same critical code as 3.8.2. Are there great obstacles in enabling this function? I am willing to spend some time with the code, but I don't want to become an expert. gp
