[Liblas-devel] how to link libgeotiff in python?

[Stanley Wong]

Thanks for your response, Will. 

My problem is that I am not getting any projection information back from the srs object. 
I have 2 test files, one I created using las2las to define a UTM projection. The other test file came from a client. 
For both files, srs methods wkt, get_wkt(), proj4, get_proj4() all returned empty string to me. 
That caused me to think I am missing a module or a library. 

Do you have any suggestions on what I might be missing here? 

Thanks, 

Stanley

Hi Stanley, 

That line (somewhat confusingly) describes libraries you need to have linked into liblas at the C level, not at the Python level. At the Python level, it should all automated away by the bindings. 

Try continuing with the tutorial and let us know if you run into any problems.

Hi, 

I am trying to add in the projection information using Python. 
In the tutorial, it mentioned that to use srs.proj4, " [it] only works if you have libgeotiff and/or GDAL linked in". 
I have gdal python module, but I could not find an "libgeotiff" python module. 
So how do I do what the tutorial is suggesting? 

Thanks, 

Stanley
