    Hi,<br>
    <br>
    Can anyone help a newbie? I have been trying to calculate statistics
    with gdal_merge when merging/stacking several tiffs together into a
    HFA format (see below for syntax). However, when loaded into ArcGIS
    it reports that there are no statistics calculated for any of the
    bands. Will the 'STATISTICS' option not work when stacking multiple
    bands? As you can probably tell I am fairly new to this, so forgive
    my ignorance.<br>
    <br>
    gdal_merge -co STATISTICS=YES -v -o "E:/Temp/A2E.img" -of HFA
    -separate "A.TIF" "B.TIF" "C.TIF" "D.TIF" "E.TIF" "F.TIF"<br>
    <br>
    Thanks,<br>
    <br>
    Matt <br>
