Ahmet, Use the gdal_rasterize utility with a combination of the command line options -a_nodata and -init with the same value. To achieve transparency with the alpha band, give a fourth value for the -burn option and make sure to include the fourth band with the -b option. 2011/1/7 ahmet temiz

Joaquim, I hear your pain about having the space in the name. It would probably not be too much trouble for the installer to allow the user to change the installation directory. That is a basic option of most installers so it would probably not be hard to implement with a WIX-built installer.

Hi Chaitanya, Setting PYTHONPATH did solve the problem. The new gdal-python bindings were installed under /user/local/lib64/python2.4/site-packages and the path was not set automatically. It would be nice if the sys.path is modified automatically by gdal installation. Thanks Xiaodong
