Rick,
GIMP 2.8.x is 8-bit not 16-bit capable. To get 16-bit capability you
need the new 2.10.x version. That's what I have and it does, in that
dialog, have options for bit-depth (including Endian options).

Hi,
Starting a new thread instead of getting this one lost in the last conversation.
Thanks for the suggestions, Liam and Guy. I was at least able to access the PDS
(NASA’s Planetary Data System) .img image in GIMP 2.8.20 (!) by changing the
image file type to .data.
Unfortunately, there’s no bit depth parameter available. How difficult would it be to
provide that in the “Load Image From Raw Data” GUI? P’shop provides the following in
their "Photoshop Raw Options" dialog:
If there was even just an option to choose 8-bit or 16-bit image depth, that’d
be a big help.
Many thanks.
