[gdal-dev] Creating a KAP/BSB

[Paul Higgins]

I have a process to create a KAP/BSB file as follows:- 1. Create a GIF- 2. >From the GIF Create a TIF- 3. From the TIF create a KAP- 4. Read the KAP into a Navigation program.
For the 2nd process I use a image processing routine called CXIMAGE which works well except if the GIF is very large then it fails trying to load it. So I decided to use "gdal_Translate input.gif ouput.tif". This seems to work except the resulting KAP is unreadable by the navigation program.  So there must be a difference in the TIF created by the CXIMAGE and gdal_translate.
Here is gdalinfo of the input GIF:C:\SAT2CHART\SAT2CHART.Testing\temp>gdalinfo _temp_SP_KAP_1598583387_.gifDriver: GTiff/GeoTIFFFiles: _temp_SP_KAP_1598583387_.gifSize is 2303, 2047Coordinate System is:LOCAL_CS["WGS 84 / Pseudo-Mercator",    UNIT["metre",1,        AUTHORITY["EPSG","9001"]]]GeoTransform =  1.262783522530797e+93, 3.8435366748478e-57, 8.467125104458958e+175  3.983892464727202e+252, 3.247326554715089e+35, 5.751476576395799e-153Metadata:  AREA_OR_POINT=AreaImage Structure Metadata:  INTERLEAVE=BANDCorner Coordinates:Upper Left  (1262783522530796746737479706828132315251220510125960098188045561858895670625330307346101960704.000,3983892464727202554888960554269713030196205758904239846941521902545445025437834361819163746941457672362766848308926612078115418501685410889087779378869932632608114241119219770776413111973463633846695245205724734052201855595075165452848877534656742817792.000)Lower Left  (173322050888274871313974395830280214368407169322874580391539706268399546036028454145435710880656476220319189266728520997656174731970960279022450462303754875301100115619306276913152.000,3983892464727202554888960554269713030196205758904239846941521902545445025437834361819163746941457672362766848308926612078115418501685410889087779378869932632608114241119219770776413111973463633846695245205724734052201855595075165452848877534656742817792.000)Upper Right (1262783522530796746737479706828132315251220510125960098188045561858895670625330307346101960704.000,3983892464727202554888960554269713030196205758904239846941521902545445025437834361819163746941457672362766848308926612078115418501685410889087779378869932632608114241119219770776413111973463633846695245205724734052201855595075165452848877534656742817792.000)Lower Right (173322050888274871313974395830280214368407169322874580391539706268399546036028454145435710880656476220319189266728520997656174731970960279022450462303754875301100115619306276913152.000,3983892464727202554888960554269713030196205758904239846941521902545445025437834361819163746941457672362766848308926612078115418501685410889087779378869932632608114241119219770776413111973463633846695245205724734052201855595075165452848877534656742817792.000)Center      (86661025444137435656987197915140107184203584661437290195769853134199773018014227072717855440328238110159594633364260498828087365985480139511225231151877437650550057809653138456576.000,3983892464727202554888960554269713030196205758904239846941521902545445025437834361819163746941457672362766848308926612078115418501685410889087779378869932632608114241119219770776413111973463633846695245205724734052201855595075165452848877534656742817792.000)Band 1 Block=2303x3 Type=Byte, ColorInterp=Palette  Color Table (RGB with 256 entries)    0: 100,96,52,255    1: 136,152,136,255    2: 60,120,96,255    3: 80,60,56,255
