Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Tika Wiki" for change notification.
The "TikaGDAL" page has been changed by ChrisMattmann: https://wiki.apache.org/tika/TikaGDAL Comment: - add docs on Tika GDAL New page: With [[https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-605|TIKA-605]], you can now use Tika to parse geospatial file formats! To figure out how, read on. = Install GDAL = If you're lucky this will work: `$ brew install gdal --complete` == Errors encountered with brew and Mavericks == Note if you encounter errors while upgrading to Mavericks here, the answer is to first: `$ brew rm $(join <(brew leaves) <(brew deps gdal --complete ))` Note the above instructions are definitely Mac centric. We recommend checking out [[http://gdal.org/|GDAL's Website]] for specific instructions on installing GDAL on your operating system. Once GDAL is installed, the following command should be available on your path. `gdalinfo` Running `gdalinfo` should produce something like: {{{ Usage: gdalinfo [--help-general] [-mm] [-stats] [-hist] [-nogcp] [-nomd] [-norat] [-noct] [-nofl] [-checksum] [-proj4] [-listmdd] [-mdd domain|`all`]* [-sd subdataset] datasetname FAILURE: No datasource specified. }}} If that works you are in business! = Using Tika and GDAL == To use Tika and GDAL grab the 1.7-SNAPSHOT latest of Tika and then grab a geospatial file, e.g., this example will use a Flexible Image Transport System (FITS) file as an example. Then run: `java -jar tika-app-1.7-SNAPSHOT.jar -m WFPC2u5780205r_c0fx.fits` This should produce, e.g., {{{ ALLG-MAX: 3.777701E3 ALLG-MIN: -7.319537E1 ATODCORR: COMPLETE .. X-Parsed-By: org.apache.tika.parser.DefaultParser X-Parsed-By: org.apache.tika.parser.gdal.GDALParser }}} If you see X-Parsed-By: ..GDALParser and a bunch of geospatial metadata, you are in business! = Using Tika Server and GDAL = Once you have GDAL and a fresh build of Tika 1.7-SNAPSHOT (including Tika server), you can easily use Tika-Server with GDAL. For example, to post a FITS file to the server and get back its metadata, run the following commands: == in another window, start Tika server == `java -jar /path/to/tika-server-1.7-SNAPSHOT.jar` == in another window, issue a cURL request == `curl -T /path/to/fits/image.fits http://localhost:9998/tika --header "Content-type: application/fits"`
