The results I got were similar to the JPEG compression with no mask, in other words I got white lines too! ________________________________ From: Etienne Tourigny <etourigny....@gmail.com<mailto:etourigny....@gmail.com>> To: Ammar <ammar8...@yahoo.com<mailto:ammar8...@yahoo.com>> Cc: Chaitanya kumar CH <chaitanya...@gmail.com<mailto:chaitanya...@gmail.com>>; gdal dev <gdal-dev@lists.osgeo.org<mailto:gdal-dev@lists.osgeo.org>> Sent: Thursday, January 23, 2014 12:25 PM Subject: Re: [gdal-dev] Question about gdaladdo and raster mosaicking As was suggested, you could try using a mask instead.

I have used LZW with predictor 2 compression and added external overviews compressed in LZW too and the image came perfect. The only downside is the size of each of the images has expanded from approx. 2 GB to 18-20 GB. So now I have to choose between quality and size! Attached are two screen shots showing the difference. Thanks again!

I'm guessing that the white lines are are actually pixels with values near but not equal to 255. So, they are not treated as nodata pixels. My suggestion is to use another format with lossless compression for the 21 images or use a mask band if you prefer. Let me know how it goes. -- Best regards, Chaitanya Kumar CH On 21-Jan-2014 5:31 pm, <ammar8...@yahoo.com<mailto:ammar8...@yahoo.com>> wrote: Hello Chaitanya, I was looking online for solutions to my problem and I cam across some of your posts so I thought you might help me with my problem. I have 10,000+ TIFF files that I want to merge into one big Image and serve using GeoServer. I merged every 500 images at a time creating using gdalbuildvrt and gdal_translate along with JPEG compression creating 21 TIFF files. I added overviews then to each of the new 21 files. When adding the images together, once directly as files using QGIS and another time as WMSs using GeoServer, I got white lines/gaps precisely at the border of ever 2 images. I thought the problem is with no data values but I decided to take another approach and merged all the 10,000 files into one huge image and this time I got one perfect image with no lines or gaps. I failed to create overviews for the big image because the process took days or gdaladdo running with no progress. I tested then on smaller images with and without overviews and the ones with no overview came perfect while the one with gdaladdo overviews came with the same problem of lines and gaps. The commands I m using are the following: gdalbuildvrt -srcnodata 255 -vrtnodata 255 -a_srs EPSG:27700 -input_file_list tiff_list.txt mosaic.vrt gdal_translate -of GTiff -co TILED=YES -co BIGTIFF=YES -co COMPRESS=JPEG -co JPEG_QUALITY=80 -co BLOCKXSIZE=512 -co BLOCKYSIZE=512 -co PHOTOMETRIC=YCBCR mosaic.vrt mosaic.tif gdaladdo mosaic.tif -r average --config COMPRESS_OVERVIEW JPEG --config JPEG_QUALITY_OVERVIEW 60 --config INTERLEAVE_OVERVIEW PIXEL --config PHOTOMETRIC_OVERVIEW YCBCR 2 4 8 16 32 64 128 256 512 Any ideas, tips or recommendations would be appreciated!
