Francesco Information regarding the format can be found under the EHdr -- ESRI .hdr Labelled section in
http://www.gdal.org/frmt_various.html We have had issues inhouse dealing with hdr files - you must add the nbits / pixeltype to the correctly read the files with GDAL. The only solution that we have found to deal with GDAL created hdr files is to parse out values that are causing problems. It is my recollection that most GIS applications can read hdr files created by GDAL including most versions of ArcGIS On 23 November 2011 08:00, francesco <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello, > I looked all day for information regarding the following problem, but found > none, so maybe the list can give me a hand: > > When using GDAL C API reading and writing ESRI hdr files (floating point > binaries), the output header is very different from the header of the input > file (see examples below). > From GDAL documentation ESRI files should be written using the first header > example.
