[gdal-dev] creating multi banded imagery

[Lucena, Ivan]

Jared,

The forth parameter on "Create" is actually the number of bands but will 
not going to work for driver/formats that does not support multi-band. 
If you want to use NITF you should check the docs.

 >>> dst = driver.Create(' ', 10, 10, *10*, GDT_UInt16)

Best regards,

Ivan
