Hi Robert,

in their DEM_1m_VictoriaCrater.cub.vrt (which they didn't include unfortunately) they have a "NoDataValue" field:

   <NoDataValue>-3.40282265508890E+38</NoDataValue>

Even when I set that to say, -2000, and regenerate the DEM_1m_VictoriaCrater.tif, osgdem/VPB always use a value of 0 for everywhere there is a <NoDataValue> in the generated terrain and not the value I set, -2000. Is it possible for osgdem/VPB to recognize the <NoDataValue> feature instead of asking USGS to not use the <NoDataValue> feature and put in a value of -2000 for everywhere they don't have values as that would not be an nice solution.

Thanks Robert,

Linh

Hi Linh,

Thanks for the link to the data.  I've downloaded and run osgdem on
the file specified but didn't get an error from GDAL/PROJ like you
did, so I'd guess that we have a different GDAL/PROJ versions.  I
have:

GDAL 1.4.1.0, released 2007/04/09


When the database built I found that the crater itself built OK but
there was erroneous boarders to the data, looking like it osgdem/VPB
hasn't detected no data values.

Running the file through gdalinfo shows that GDAL itself isn't
detecting a no data value, and the range is rather wild:

gdalinfo DEM_1m_VictoriaCrater.tif -mm

I don't know whether this is sign that GDAL itself needs updating to
handle this projection or whether the data itself is not set up well.

BTW what version of VPB/GDAL/OS are you using?

Robert.
