<BR>> It should be possible to use the .net bindings of GDAL maintained by<BR>> Tamas Szekeres from VB.Net though I must confess I haven't tried it myself.<BR>> That should be a relatively easy way of reading GeoTIFF and other geospatial<BR>> raster data formats.<BR><BR>
Thank you for the suggestion.<BR>

I just tried to install GeoNetWork. I cann't have informed myself well enough .. or wasn't able to to see, that Java was a prerequisit. The Java-install had a conspicuous silent exit (without a confirmation of successful install). The following install of GeoNetWork could not proceed to the end, but I think that it popped a 'success'-screen. It doesn't work, and none of the programs seem to exist persistently enough for an uninstall, though the startMenues are present. I would call that a spectacular fiasko. Or have I grown too complacent at the latest ..?..<BR>
Frank Warmerdam, GDAL cann't be worse than that. I do the black screen reboots in my own programming ;o)<BR>

I did read the libTiff. It's informative enough for me to get going on Tiff.<BR>
