<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I have no experience on 32 bit images but play with gdaladdo and compression options and report what you find. External overviews (-ro) are handy for testing because you can simply rename
or delete the .ovr file and make new run with other options. External overviews take some more space than it takes to add internal overviews into TIFF but best option as external should be best as internal too.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am looking into compressing overviews for a DEM, with LERC_DEFLATE and it works. But I'm trying to set the precision loss and get better compression, since for overviews I don't
really care that much.<u></u><u></u></p>

<div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Ok, so the question is how to set the MAX_Z_ERROR for overviews compressed with LERC_DEFLATE?<u></u><u></u></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">My reasoning is to compress losslessly the dem with deflate predictor 3, and then compress "lossly" the overviews with lerc_deflate.<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Since this is 32bit dataset, I can't use jpeg on the overviews.<u></u><u></u></p>
