[Geomoose-users] 2008 FSA Air Photo

[Fischer, Brian]

I usually use Blue Marble Desktop for all my conversions, but their
software was having problems with the format as well.  This is the
response I got back from them.

"To update you regarding the JP2 which causes the Blue Marble Desktop to
crash, we use ECW for our JP2 support. The ECW toolkit is having an
issue with this specific file because it is internally "tiled". This
image also crashes when the Developers attempt to open it in ERMapper's
Viewer. We would like to send your image to ERMapper to look at, but
will not do so without your permission. We hope to resolve any issues
with viewing this particular JP2 image for the next release of the Blue
Marble Desktop. Please allow us to send your data to ERMapper. Thank you
and looking forward to your response."

Is there anychance there is some software that could convert this to a
JPEG2000? According to a few google searches, GraphicConverter can deal
with JP2 files.
