TKIMGGDAL |
|
This is a Tk photo image format handler using the Geospatial Data Abstraction Library (GDAL). GDAL is a translator library for raster geospatial data formats released by the Open Source Geospatial Foundation (see http://www.gdal.org/). This format handler has been developed because:
The package also adds a few useful standalone Tcl commands to get the properties of an image without loading it into memory. The package contains the source files and compiled binary extensions for Windows and Linux i686. The binary extensions can be used from Tcl/Tk as follows: package require tkimggdal image create photo -format gdal or set theImage [image create photo] $theImage read -format gdal -file very_big_image.tif -from 4000 5000 5000 6000
Note that the "-format gdal" option is not required if tkimggdal is the only handler loaded. Performance can be improved by increasing the size of the cache GDAL uses. See the gdalcache command below. This software is distributed under the "X11/MIT" license. Copyright (c) 2006, Wayne Mogg
