Hi all,<br>
while there are also the IF_NEEDED and IF_SAFER values for the BIGTIFF <br>
creation option, another possibility would be to have an option to let <br>
GDAL to retry to create the raster file as a BIGTIFF if the the normal <br>
TIFF creation fails or to let QGIS to inform the user if the normal TIFF <br>
creation fails and then offer the possibility to retry using the <br>
BIGTIFF=YES option.<br>
<br>
Regards.<br>
<br>
Andrea<br>
