Hi lists,<br>we have slightly simplified the procedure for testing the unofficial GeoServer release supporting GDAL through ImageIO-Ext. (A GeoServer version supporting MrSID, JP2K (MrSID), JP2K (Kakadu), DTED, Erdas Imagine, NITF Format).<br>
The new release is available at <a href="http://www.geo-solutions.it/libraries/geoserver-1.7.0-SNAPSHOT-war.zip">http://www.geo-solutions.it/libraries/geoserver-1.7.0-SNAPSHOT-war.zip</a>.<br> <br>We have set a simple guide with instructions and links to test the release. This guide is available as:<br>

OpenOffice Doc: <a href="http://www.geo-solutions.it/doc/geoservergdal.odt">http://www.geo-solutions.it/doc/geoservergdal.odt</a><br><br>Before testing GeoServer, be sure you have read the section "<a class="" name="ImageIO-EXTGDAL-SomenotesontheGeoServerusage&nbsp;"></a>Some notes on the GeoServer usage" on the ImageIO-EXT-GDAL WIKI page:<br>

<br>Finally, note that due to licensing issues, the available dynamic libraries enable support for MrSID, JP2K (MrSID), DTED, Erdas Imagine, NITF formats.<br>If you need to add support to JP2K (Kakadu) and ECW, see instructions available at <a href="http://www.geo-solutions.it/doc/ImageioExt-SetupGuide.odt">http://www.geo-solutions.it/doc/ImageioExt-SetupGuide.odt</a> (OpenOffice) or <a href="http://www.geo-solutions.it/doc/ImageioExt-SetupGuide.pdf">http://www.geo-solutions.it/doc/ImageioExt-SetupGuide.pdf</a> (PDF), sections "GDAL Requirements" and "GDAL Configurations" for further information on enabling ECW and Kakadu support on GDAL.
