Hi, Have I understood right that Imageio-ext developers must especially write something like a new driver for adding new GDAL formats and therefore this list https://java.net/downloads/imageio-ext/Documentation/gdalsupportedformats.html is quite a bit shorter than this one http://gdal.org/formats_list.html?
I wonder if it would be possible to write a Imageio-ext driver for GDAL Virtual Raster http://www.gdal.org/gdal_vrttut.html. Virtual raster, as far as I know, is making a new abstraction layer, a black box which makes everything behind the VRT to look the same. If Imageio-ext could read GDAL VRT it would be able to read everything that is supported by GDAL out of the box now and in the future. However, I am not a programmer and I do not know if I am right with my imagination. But wouldn't it be cool if it was possible? -Jukka Rahkonen- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Introducing Performance Central, a new site from SourceForge and AppDynamics.
