Sean,

my quick look at the JP2Grok driver code is that it doesn't generate the HTJ2K / Part 15 variant of JPEG2000, at least there's nothing suggesting that (didn't try running it). I guess that there would be a need for a dedicated creation option in the driver for that to happen, so there shouldn't be interoperability issues of the files it generates with other JPEG2000 capable drivers.

I'm not sure which support of HTJ2K the ECW and MrSID SDKs have. I believe there's such support Kakadu in recent releases, but might be subject to extra fees (or perhaps for  faster support)

There's a BSD 2 licensed implementation of HTJ2K in https://github.com/aous72/OpenJPH . From what I see, Grok HTJ2K support has incorporated some of that code.  So for a BSD 2 compatible use in GDAL, either a GDAL driver should be built from OpenJPH as a standalone library, or relevant parts of OpenJPH should be "ported" to OpenJPEG.

Hi  Aaron, and everyone,

It seems like interoperability could be harmed if we release GDAL with a JP2 driver that writes JPEG 2000 files that the main open source JP2 driver can't read. Would it make sense to add compatibility to OpenJPEG before the PR gets merged? Or are we already in a state of inoperability between JP2ECW, JP2MRSID, and JP2OpenJPEG?

    Hi Jean-Roc,
    Good question - unfortunately OpenJPEG doesn't currently support
    HTJ2K,
    it only supports JPEG 2000 Part 1. I am sure that this will
    eventually be integrated,
    but it isn't there at the moment.
    Cheers,
    Aaron

        Hi Aaron,

        Is the HTJ2K's output still readable by a regular GDAL/OpenJPEG ?
