NAME
geotifcp - Copy TIFF with updated GeoTIFF Metadata
SYNOPSIS
geotifcp
[
options] [
-e esri_worldfile] [
-g metadata]
input output
DESCRIPTION
geotifcp is identical in function to the LIBTIFF
program tiffcp, with the additional feature that if
the "-g" option is used the GeoTIFF information from
the file will be installed into the output file.
The "-e worldfile" option
will override the tiepoint and scale information from the metadata file
based on the contents of the ESRI worldfile.
If the "-g" option is not used the geotiff information
from the source file is preserved in the new output file.
"geotifcp" inherits all the other file-transformation
capabilities of the tiffcp program; for help on the
additional parameters give the command:
% geotifcp -h
The metadata format is the same as is described in the
listgeo(1)
program.
Normally metadata files for use with geotifcp are
generated from a similar file with listgeo,
and then modified by hand as required.
OPTIONS
- -g file
-
install GeoTIFF metadata from file
- -4 proj4_str
-
install GeoTIFF metadata from proj4 string
- -e file
-
install positioning info from ESRI Worldfile
file
- -a
-
append to output instead of overwriting
- -8
-
write BigTIFF instead of default ClassicTIFF
- -o offset
-
set initial directory offset
- -p contig
-
pack samples contiguously (e.g. RGBRGB...)
- -p separate
-
store samples separately (e.g. RRR...GGG...BBB...)
- -s
-
write output in strips
- -t
-
write output in tiles
- -i
-
ignore read errors
- -d
-
truncate 8 bitspersample to 4bitspersample
- -r #
-
make each strip have no more than # rows
- -w #
-
set output tile width (pixels)
- -l #
-
set output tile length (pixels)
- -f lsb2msb
-
force lsb-to-msb FillOrder for output
- -f msb2lsb
-
force msb-to-lsb FillOrder for output
- -c lzw[:opts]
-
compress output with Lempel-Ziv & Welch encoding
- -c zip[:opts]
-
compress output with deflate encoding
- -c jpeg[:opts]
-
compress output with JPEG encoding
- -c packbits
-
compress output with packbits encoding
- -c g3[:opts]
-
compress output with CCITT Group 3 encoding
- -c g4
-
compress output with CCITT Group 4 encoding
- -c none
-
use no compression algorithm on output
Group 3 options:
- 1d
-
use default CCITT Group 3 1D-encoding
- 2d
-
use optional CCITT Group 3 2D-encoding
- fill
-
byte-align EOL codes
For example, -c g3:2d:fill to get G3-2D-encoded data
with byte-aligned EOLs
JPEG options:
- #
-
set compression quality level (0-100, default 75)
- r
-
output color image as RGB rather than YCbCr
For example, -c jpeg:r:50 to get JPEG-encoded RGB data
with 50% comp. quality
LZW and deflate options:
- #
-
set predictor value
For example, -c lzw:2 to get LZW-encoded data with
horizontal differencing
