Hi, The OpenTopography site provides a web service to download its SRTM data. See
http://www.opentopography.org/developers#SRTM where there is an example URL for a query (that works). What I don't understand is that gdalinfo "/vsicurl/<example URL>" fails with "ERROR 4: `/vsicurl/ http://opentopo.sdsc.edu/otr/getdem?demtype=SRTMGL3&west=-120.168457&south=36.738884&east=-118.465576&north=38.091337&outputFormat=GTiff' not recognized as a supported file format." but gdalinfo "<example URL>" works just fine. While it's wonderful that it works, I'm looking to do something like this from a C++ program so I would like to understand why /vsicurl is not used in this situation. Thanks very much, carl
