Re: [Gimp-user] Does GIMP support GEOTIFF files?
Hello, Actually, that would be the problem. The gimp does load up the image, giving warnings about the tags it does not understand, and when one saves the image these tags are lost. I have used the Gimp for various (fairly simple) image processing as a user, but I have not looked at the code or creating a plug-in, which I might look into doing (but, unfortunately, may be a bit limited on time) . Documentation and a geotiff library can be found here, btw: http://remotesensing.org/geotiff/geotiff.html Sincerely, Maverick Merritt Jeffrey Brent McBeth [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 08/24/2007 02:46 PM To gimp-user@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu cc Subject Re: [Gimp-user] Does GIMP support GEOTIFF files?

It is unlikely that the file format would be supported in GIMP unless there is a publically available document which describes the file format. If there is such a document, it just takes an interested party to create a plug-in for the format. It has been almost ten years since I worked with GEOTIFF files, but IIRC they are just TIFF files with a couple extra tags telling you where the image is geospatially located. That should mean that GIMP can open a GEOTIFF fine, but there are no guarantees that it can keep the tags if you then save it. Note, I haven't checked this in a long long time, but it did work then.

When the TIFF loader is reading a GeoTIFF file, the tags could be converted in to image parasites. When the file is re-saved, the parasites could be converted back to tags as the file is The possibility of doing this will depend in part in how easy/hard it is to recognize a GeoTIFF file vs. an ordinary TIFF file. -- Cheers!

[Gimp-user] Gimp 2.4.0rc1 Sample Points tab - what is it?
The Sample Points tab was (I believe) added somewhere in the 2.3.x journey to 2.4. When added as a tab all options appear to grayed out. I tried googling and also in my snapshot of the documentation for 2.4 (as at 2007-08-1) without success. Am I correct that this has not yet been implemented or am I not doing something that would turn it on. More importantly - what is its purpose? (any reference cite I can look at) Regards ...
