Any other program using GDAL (like QGIS) will read files written by GDAL.
ArcGIS is an exception, as it predictably does the wrong thing. My
experience is that you have to read GeoTiff through the toolbox raster
calculate statistics module, because ArcGIS guesses wrong about how the
data are configured, and often ignores valid NA cells (hence the odd
values). A three-band will typically be interpreted by ArcGIS as an RGB
image. Doing it a band at a time, and going in through the toolbox (think
Python script) is feasible. On the other hand, non-GDAL ENVI handles
GDAL-written multiband GeoTiffs without any trouble that I've seen.
Welcome to the world of "interoperability"!

Hi,
I have problems with writeGDAL. With:
> writeGDAL(mean2005, "mean.tif", drivername="GTiff", options="TFW=YES")
I export a SpatialGridDataFrame with 9 bands to a GeoTiff. But when I try
to display this GeoTiff in ArcGIS, all 9 bands are not correctly displayed
and all cells have the same value (1.17549e-038). I also tried another GIS
(PcRaster) but it doesn't work. Can somebody tell me what I did wrong? In
R all 9 bands are displayed correctly.
Thank you very much,
Lydia
