Hi Christian, for the moment there is no support for the GT geotiff plugin based on gdal :( There is a JIRA about it, created long time ago: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOT-2864 However, if you need to deal with bigtiff, you could try configuring a coverage through the standard geotiff store

Hi Daniele, my primary problem is that I am running on a hardware where jai native acceleration is not available. As a consequence, I would like to use a gdal format to achieve better performance. What format would you recommend ? Next question, I would like to try the imagepyramid plugin

Ciao Christian, we never added support for gdal geotiff deiver since we always been using our own which as comprabale performance and is pure java. Therefore Would recommend sticking with the geotools geotiff reader that should support bigtiff since the the move to imageio-ext 1.1 As of the

Hi Daniele, I succeeded with a gdal installation on a power pc architecture and I see the additional gdal formats in the geoserver admin gui. I want to use gdal big geotiff format. In the WEB-INF/lib folder I find gt-geotiff-8-SNAPSHOT.jar imageio-ext-gdalgeotiff-1.1.2.jar

Simone, short question here. Does this mean that I can use native image IO (due to GDAL) without installing the standard JAI accelerator libraries. My customers uses non Intel and non Oracle hardware for the servers and there is no JAI native acceleration available. But I can compile

Good news, very, very good news. I downloaded gdal 1.7.3 and wanted to start a 64 bit build. Unfortunately, I did not find any instructions on http://java.net/projects/imageio-ext how to configure the build. No idea which features are needed (proj4,swig bindings,...). The only thing I

Hi Christian, you can take a look on this: http://java.net/downloads/imageio-ext/Documentation/ImageioExt-SetupGuide-1.1.pdf (there is also a .odt document, just change the extension on that link) Let us know if you have some feedbacks on it so we can improve the documentation too. Hope this

+1 on upgrade of the stable branch to imageio 1.1.x / gdal 1.7.3. Also a related question about the roadmap of imageio-ext and how the various gdal versions are tracked. It seems now the strategy is to lag behind a few releases, a nice conservative approach. Question is do the imageio-ext

The idea sounds fine; however let me counter with another idea that would have the same effect for GeoServer. What would you say to issuing a 8.0-RC1? After 8.0-RC1 is published; the stable release of GeoServer could migrate to to 8.x series; and we can rename trunk as 9.x. It does seem like
