15:33 * dpatton yawns ;-)
15:33 < dpatton> Had to do that before mazop had a chance ;-)
15:34 * mazop yawns
15:34 * mazop good 2nd place ;)
15:35 < dpatton> mazop: I thought that world files specified the coordinates for the upper left corner of the associated image - have you seen situations where they specify the lower left corner coordinates?
15:38 < mazop> as far as i know 'world files' are esri standard - and (as you know?) i dont work (and dont like so much) esri applications ...
15:38 < mazop> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_file
15:39 < mazop> geotiff is more my thing ;)
15:44 >> Bull_[Zzz] is now known as Bull_[UK]
15:44 < dpatton> ok, just wondered if you'd ever run across that
15:45 < dpatton> So, I should ask you a GeoTiff question then? ;-)
16:11 < mazop> news about "dstile-to-wwcache" ?
16:39 < dpatton> mazop: you mean a Windows version? So far, one doesn't exist - not sure of the next step - I may try and do a build here, or see if Adam can do a build - problem is that FrankW's build doesn't include what_nick's changes to make dstile output WW cache-format data
16:40 < mazop> but it works for tilesesrvice ? ... i mean the win-compiled-dstile ?
16:45 < dpatton> not sure - I'm just finishing fixing up my DRGMapCal program, which I use to generate world files for some Canadian topo map images
16:45 < dpatton> once I've done that, I'll redo the generation of the world files for my "test images", so I can then generate a GeoTiff from them
16:46 < mazop> why you need those world-files ?
16:46 < dpatton> then I'll try using dstile again, which generates Nowak's 'tilepack folder structure' - that's as far as I got before
16:47 < dpatton> then, I'll try using tilepack.exe, which I didn't have before, to generate a "tilepack"
16:48 < dpatton> After that, the only way I know to see if "everything was done correctly" is to send the tilepack to Nowak or f0urtyfive and have them put it on a server so Punt/WW can access it via HTTP
16:49 < dpatton> I need the world files in order to georeference the GIF files that I'm mosaicing into a GeoTiff
16:53 < mazop> anyway... i never needed any worldfiles to get geotiff out of any format ....
16:56 < dpatton> so if I sent you two GIF images, and told you to make a GeoTiff mosaic from them, how would you do it? The georeferencing information has to come from somewhere?
16:57 < dpatton> And, I have over 7000 of these GIF images, so entering values by hand isn't an option ;-)
17:00 < mazop> sure....and its not in the GIF i guess ;) ... so you would have to give me ll/ur coordinates .... or i would geo-register them 'by hand' ..... http://dynagis.net/dropbox/screenshots/LocalWMS_1910map-aa.jpg
17:02 < dpatton> what do you mean "ll/ur coordinates"? Latitude/Longitude I get, but "ur"?
17:02 < mazop> sorry....LowerLeft - UpperRight...
17:05 < dpatton> oh, ok :-)
17:06 < dpatton> Also, I found out yesterday from Nowak that dstile doesn't support pallette-based Tiffs, so I have to figure out how to make GDAL generate a 'proper' GeoTiff from the GIF images

17:16 < dpatton> [1]adamhill: mazop was asking about the status of 'dstile for Windows'
17:16 < dpatton> other than waiting for nhv to "return from the sea", what do you think is the "best next step"?
17:17 < dpatton> based on what Frank's told me, I don't think it's worth trying to build a version for FWTools
17:18 < dpatton> do you want to try again to build dstile on cygwin, but using the modified source?
17:18 < [1]adamhill> so i guess compiling GDAL and PROJ in vs2003 would be it
17:19 >> SignOff: adamhill (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)) [#punt]
17:19 >> [1]adamhill is now known as adamhill
17:19 < adamhill> if the original version doesnt work any new one probably wont either
17:19 < adamhill> or setting up MingW and trying
17:31 < dpatton> I don't have VS2003, so I can't do that option. I do have MinGw setup, so i coud thy that. Guess I'd have to figure out how to build GDAL and PROJ4 first.
17:33 < dpatton> My next step is going to be to use the dstile/tilepack I have, and try and make sure that works properly(i.e. using the Windows versions) - I guess Nowak/f0urtyfive are the only ones who can verify that the tilepack is created properly?
