Hi,
If you are on Windows 64-bit and don't need Python nor Oracle, use this:
http://gisinternals.com/sdk/Download.aspx?file=release-1600-x64-gdal-mapserver.zip
Installation is like with FWTools: unzip. Go to installation directory, run
"sdkshell" or perhaps "sdkshell hideoci".
This is for sure problem free and good to have always on all your computers.
For Python v. 2.7 and Oracle I have installed
http://gisinternals.com/sdk/Download.aspx?file=release-1600-x64-gdal-mapserver\gdal-110-1600-x64-core.msi
http://gisinternals.com/sdk/Download.aspx?file=release-1600-x64-gdal-mapserver\GDAL-1.10.0.win-amd64-py2.7.msi
http://gisinternals.com/sdk/Download.aspx?file=release-1600-x64-gdal-mapserver\gdal-110-1600-x64-oracle.msi
I have not yet studied the environment settings, I just open the GDAL command
window that appears into Start menu after msi installation and used python
tools with absolute paths like
c:\python27\python C:\GDAL_dev\bin\gdal\python\scripts\gdal_edit.py [parameters]

Hi Jukka,
I've tried that one before. First there's the fact there are far too many
options and I can never be sure I'm getting the right thing (the page assumes a
significant level of knowledge about what package is what). Second the python
scripts (i..e. gdal_merge.py) don't work "out of the box" and it's non-obvious
how to fix that (I just noticed there are also "GDA: python bindings" extension
things, but just done that and it still doesn't work so... :-S ).
For ease of use I prefer http://fwtools.maptools.org/ - except that it seems to
be an outdated version of GDAL (so I'm hitting some GDAL bugs there) and has an
issue with batch files too.
And the QGIS version comes with all manner of environmental variable issues
that stop it from working stand-alone for me.
I think I may have tried the version that comes with FME too, but similar
issues.
GDAL is a powerful tool, but as I've learnt to expect from command-line
software, it's not easy to install/use. :-(
Regards,
Jonathan

Hi,
What exactly is wrong with the builds from http://gisinternals.com/sdk/? I have
been using them for years with good success.

Thanks for the replies. My other problem is that I don't have a good GDAL
install (precompiled for windows). Every one I've tried has been
buggy/non-functional in some critical way (typically environmental variable
issues). I tried creating a nice little batch file to do everything at once in
sequence for each raster, but alas that didn't work out so its "do things
manually".
I'll have to do some more testing.
Thanks,
Jonathan

I'm not sure which gdal_merge behaviour Jukka is refering too, but indeed it
might not be the appropriate tool to mosaic stuff into a compressed geotiff due
to the way it operates (it can have to do uncompression / recompression cycles
that will waste space in the geotiff). gdalbuildvrt to do the mosaicing
(without a disk footprint of only a few bytes) followed by gdal_translate to
compress will lead to the optimal file size.
