[Gdal-dev] gdal_merge.py Gtiff files with -pct losing color

[Matt Wilkie]

Hi Dori, gdal doesn't like something about the way the source image[1] 
is formatted. I can't view it in OpenEV or in QGIS, it just comes up as 
a black image even before trying to translate or merge. Histograms in 
both programs come up blank.  You should probably file a bug[2]

In the meantime, I was able to open the image using ossim 
imagelinker[3], so maybe give that a try (though being pressed for time 
you may not have the time to learn it).
