[gdal-dev] How do I find the anchor point in file?

[Todd Smith]

Looking into it more closely, a setting was incorrect in my parameter file
that my code was referencing.  It was allocating the wrong size buffer
because it was thinking it was creating RGB data instead of elevation data.
No bug, and now no more problems.

Thanks,

Todd
