    Hello Ammar,<br>
    <br>
    the default for gdal_translate is no tiling, no compression, and
    don't copy overviews. So your last gdal_translate command
    effectively removes all tiling, overviews and compression. If you
    want to have a tiled and compressed file, add the '-co compress=lzw"
    to your first gdal_translate command, which will create a tiled and
    compressed 'out.tif'. Then add overviews to that with gdaladdo. If
    I'm not mistaken, the overviews use the settings from the main
    dataset, so would also use lzw compression.<br>
    <br>
    Best,<br>
    Vincent Schut.<br>
