1.9.1 - yes, I saw your discussion about GDAL problems. Maybe the rounding bug has something to do with it, but even when no bounding box is used from GDAL (like when I just want to query what the extent is of the whole raster), I get the wrong extents and horrible performance.
I'd like to at least verify that the PostGIS raster is OK first. GDAL dev is not really a good option since I need to deploy the extraction scripts on a few computers very soon, and it's best if I can use a packaged distribution. The vrt of the original geotiffs works, so that's what I'll probably be using. On Aug 23, 2012, at 1:37 PM, Bborie Park wrote: > What version of GDAL are you using? Could you try GDAL trunk?
