Hi,

Having one of these in driver capabilities is enough:

Supports: Create() - Create writable dataset.
  Supports: CreateCopy() - Create dataset by copying another.

There may be some special cases like WMS driver that according to that table supports Copy but obviously you cannot convert GeoTIFF into WMS service with GDAL but that must mean something else.

Aihe: [gdal-dev] Raster supported raster conversions

Hi i have a question about format conversion:
How is it possibile to know the possible conversions between formats (using gdal_translate)?
I found https://gdal.org/drivers/raster/index.html, so i guess is possible to convert from format X to format Y iff the GDAL driver of format Y has the "Creation" field to "yes" ?
