Hi Markus and Marco, I think there are two ways of transparency: * a global layer transparency (still missing as Marco said) * transparency in the SVG pattern - this is probably what Markus wants. This should let layers below the SVG pattern layer shine through where there is no 100% opaque

Is there a way of comparing the data in two raster images (actually two DEM's) that cover the same area but at different resolution? So far I have created a grid of points and used the point sampling tool to get the value from the two rasters but this is a long way round, is there a direct way

Same setup as Greg (my binaries), takes a few minutes to open. A thought - gdalinfo on the jp2 tiles uses the ECW JP2 driver, which is a plugin on the Mac, but I wonder if the vrt is ignoring plugins and using the builtin jasper driver (slow). On Jan 21, 2010, at 2:35 PM, Peter Ersts wrote:
