Thanks much. This is good to know. Too bad that it is sort of hidden like this.

The actual GDAL support is currently described here https://gdal.org/drivers/raster/hfa.html<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://gdal.org/drivers/raster/hfa.html__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!dxAz91JQJzA6KFrNvLvXfxGUSOfAxBPwEKvmPoJCl0MO9kQiRvHWSSoaIibc5vD-8sc0rMw4x5z3qeWuqWb5_w$> - I think the .ige files are described as "spill files" there

Ah!! So that is what the *.ige file is for.

No,
The .ige file is what spills over after the 4GB of the .img file fills up.  You need to have both.

The info I downloaded for 2021 had a much more modes sized *.img file and a huge *.ige file (25 Gb or so). It looks like the best approach is to use the *.img file and discard the *.ige file. Perhaps that latter is the uncompressed one.

Michael,
The last time I checked, the NLCD data in .img format is an uncompressed raster.  You can save a massive amount of hard drive space by converting the .img files to deflate compressed geotiff, then linking via r.external.

That's what I did for the 2019 NLCD , https://youtu.be/0NHdWSF96o0<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://youtu.be/0NHdWSF96o0__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!blFVjt0b_VzE5YHFAP329crlFPnXaqNiZ4D-fL-iXPQ5XyqvecAcD8O_8casHv10elH0LT7wGuoEBXEk0QGvrXJmh8d9eLE$> .  The 2021 is the same.  The .img /ige file is 26 GB for 1 year nationwide. Converting to deflate compressed geotiff takes it down to 1.5 GB.

Hope this helps!

Doug

Thanks Brendan,

Any suggestions on how to get this into the raster? Or are you thinking we should export the raster to vector and link the csv that way?

Hi Michael, I've attached an NLCD legend in csv format and text files with categories and color table for GRASS in case it helps.

Thanks Ana,

I was able to do that. I'm trying to look at the NLCD. While it opens fine and is classified, there are no text labels for the landcover categories. Would these be hiding in the *.ige file?

There should be an .img file, try open that instead.

It doesn't look like r.in.gdal does this. Is there an extension or other way to import an ERDAS *.ige file?
