Peter,
I've set the NoData to the actual value
-340282000000000014192072600942972764160.00
as read thanks to the "Add values from display"
in the same Transparency tab,
but this does not seem to have any effect in
the histogram or in the min and max values
loaded in tab Symbology: the min is
still -3.40282e+38 . I understand
that if the user sets -3.40282e+38 as NoData,
this value cannot be considered the min. So
it seems that the program cannot use
-340282000000000014192072600942972764160.00
as NoData
I've ported the image (npp_geotiff) into R through manageR:
a <- [EMAIL PROTECTED]
>summary(a)
Min. 1st Qu. Median Mean 3rd Qu. Max.
-3.403e+38 -3.403e+38 -3.403e+38 -2.391e+38 2.776e+10 1.156e+12
>summary(a[a<0])
Min. 1st Qu. Median Mean 3rd Qu. Max.
-3.403e+38 -3.403e+38 -3.403e+38 -3.403e+38 -3.403e+38 -3.403e+38
So -3.403e+38 is the only negative value.
If I set:
>a[a<0] <- NA
>summary(a)
Min. 1st Qu. Median Mean 3rd Qu. Max.
6.29800e+08 4.56200e+10 1.21100e+11 2.32400e+11 3.07900e+11 1.15600e+12
NA's
5.78832e+05
Then I've defined:
>b <- npp_geotiff
>[EMAIL PROTECTED]@data$band1 <0 ]<- 0
and passed b to QGIS through manageR
There I set 0 as No Data and get the same
behaviour, 0 is still considered as the min,
while (in my opinion) it should not,

Agustin,
You will notice that that image does not have a valid NoDataValue by
default, which is why the field in the properties dialog is blank.
The transparency table and NoDataValue field can handle scientific
notation just fine. The problem is that -3.40282e+38 is NOT the "exact"
value of the pixel, so the no data and transparency checks fail.
Overly simplistic example
( 3.2e+01 == 3.28 ) is false.
The "value tool plugin", if that is what you are using to find the
values, should let you choose between scientific notation and actual
value for output display. Maybe the documentation or metadata for the
project that produced that image will have a detailed description of
pixel values.

I have a raster map
(http://sedac.ciesin.columbia.edu/es/npp_geotiff.zip)
with the odd value of
-3.40282e+38
as null value (this is probably the way some software is writing its
null values)
Is there any way I can set this value as NO DATA VALUE in QGIS?
I have the impression that the field in the Transparency tab does not
accept the e+38
I've been able to set it in the transparency list thanks
to the tool that lets you select in the image, but then
cannot copy and paste.
Thanks
Agus
