Hi, I noticed this question from gis.stackexchange https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/378557/gdalwarp-does-not-use-lanczos-resampling-on-image-with-alpha-channel/378569?noredirect=1#comment618912_378569
It seems that alpha band has some bad effect on the result of lanczos resampling and that can be avoided by using -noscralpha option. From the gdalwarp manual page: "Prevent the alpha band of a source image to be considered as such (it will be warped as a regular band)". The option has been added to GDAL version 2.2 but with no mention about any bug that it resolved. What is the difference between warping a band as an alpha band or as a regular band? How users are supposed to know when it is appropriate to use -nosrcalpha switch? -Jukka Rahkonen-
