Hi Brad,</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
<br>
We edited the VRT to remove the NODATA tags, we also tried "gdal_edit.py -unsetnodata", however we are still seeing the colored dot artifacts.<br>
<br>
Could you please elaborate on what exactly you did that helped and if the dots were completely removed by that process?<br>
<br>
Thanks again,<br>
Raymond.<br>

Thanks Brad,<br>
<br>
I didn't notice your response as my e-mail system flagged it junk email.<br>
<br>
We'll try this and report back with our findings.<br>
<br>
Thank you again for the help,</div>

I manually removed the NODATA part from the vrt, and it looks better. Possibly<br>
the nodata value in the source is bad? Or you need to put something more<br>
meaningful behind the images...<br>
