Hi world,
Ok I figured it out. As it turns out, the *aux.xml file is generated
when the raster band does not contain the statistics data. I first
removed all this data using gdal_edit with the "-unsetstats" command.
Then used the "-stats" command and voilà!!! no more pesky xml files for
all files!
For some reason, using the -stats command only, did not do the job as I
had tried that before writing this email. I first needed to -unsetstats
before.
Cheers!
Nicolas

Hi,
I am writing some scripts in python using gdal. When reading .tif files to get
the min max statistics, I sometimes get the creation of pesky *.aux.xml files
and sometimes not?
What governs the creation of these files? Are they only created when the
statistics are not included in the band metadata? Can a gdal-edit -stats fix
the issue?
I know this is more of a gdal question then a Qgis question but some people in
this group are very knowledgeable so I am taking my chances!
Thanks for the insight
Nicolas
