Hi Ralph,

I am using the last versions from svn.  Perhaps this warning from
gdalinfo gives a hint on what is wrong with this data?

gdalinfo volcanes.tif
Warning 1: TIFFReadDirectory:volcanes.tif: Wrong "StripByteCounts"
field, ignoring and calculating from imagelength

because otherwise it recognizes that there is no projection but has
all georeferencing information needed.

Coordinate System is `'
Origin = (-99.000000000000000,20.000000000000000)
Pixel Size = (0.000277777777778,-0.000277777777778)
Image Structure Metadata:
  INTERLEAVE=BAND
Corner Coordinates:
Upper Left  ( -99.0000000,  20.0000000)
Lower Left  ( -99.0000000,  19.0000000)
Upper Right ( -97.0000000,  20.0000000)
Lower Right ( -97.0000000,  19.0000000)
Center      ( -98.0000000,  19.5000000)

I built it with gdal_translate directly from the BIL file
gdal_translate -of GTiff -co "TILED=YES"
MDE-n200000s190000e0970000o0990000.bil volcanes.tif

The header of the BIL file says:

NROWS 3600
NCOLS 7200
NBANDS 1
NBITS 16
BYTEORDER I
LAYOUT BIL
SKIPBYTES 0
NODATA 0.000000
BYTEORDER I
XDIM 0.000277777777777778
YDIM 0.000277777777777778
ULXMAP -98.99986111111112
ULYMAP 19.999861111111112

Apparently it misses vertical information, but that is not the problem
right now.

Regards,

-- A.
