[gdal-dev] GPKG raster creation : error with too small resolution

[Rahkonen Jukka]

Hi,

Can you imagine using a custom tiling schema instead of the world-wide InspireCRS84Quad? These commands work

gdal_create -of GTiff -co COMPRESS=DEFLATE -outsize 2000 2000 -burn 255 -burn 0 -burn 0 -bands 3 -ot Byte -a_srs epsg:32631 -a_ullr 1000000 1000002 1000002 1000000 1mm.tif

gdal_translate -of GPKG  1mm.tif 1mm.gpkg

Notice the fixed ullr for making the image north-up.

gdal_translate -of GPKG  1mm.tif 1mm.gpkg
Input file size is 2000, 2000
0ERROR 6: Only north-up non rotated geotransform supported
..ERROR 1: Raster table 1mm not correctly initialized due to missing call to SetGeoTransform()

Aihe: [gdal-dev] GPKG raster creation : error with too small resolution


Dear all,

I just had an error while converting an image to GPKG. This image has a very small resolution and gdal_translate pops up an error message.

Test image :
gdal_create -of GTiff -co COMPRESS=DEFLATE -outsize 2000 2000 -burn 255 -burn 0 -burn 0 -bands 3 -ot Byte -a_srs epsg:32631 -a_ullr 1000000 1000000 1000002 1000002 1mm.tif

Conversion to GPKG :
gdal_translate -of GPKG -co TILING_SCHEME=InspireCRS84Quad -co ZOOM_LEVEL_STRATEGY=UPPER 1mm.tif 1mm.gpkg
Input file size is 2000, 2000
ERROR 1: Could not find an appropriate zoom level

Analysis
The error is due to  ogrgeopackagedatasource.cpp<https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/blob/master/ogr/ogrsf_frmts/gpkg/ogrgeopackagedatasource.cpp#L3169> (line 3169), and it does make sense : the zoom level is too high (Z>25).

However, wouldn't it be possible to modify gdal_translate behavior ?
For example, we could :

  *   let GDAL compute the appropriate zoom level : -co ZOOM_LEVEL_STRATEGY=AUTO/LOWER/UPPER,
  *   optionally specify a maximum zoom level : -co MAX_ZOOM_LEVEL=18
What do you think ?

Philippe
