Yes, the overviews are internal to the tiff files.

Hi,
The documentation and win bindaries I have worked with are hosted at
http://www.remotesensing.org/gdal/
The GDAL utilities descriptions are at
http://www.remotesensing.org/gdal/gdal_utilities.html
I am not sure how gdaladdo works with TIFF files, however I think it stores
the overview files internally to the input image from browsing the
documentation.
I have used GDAL quite a bit to convert images, for example to convert from
GeoTIFF to JPEG format and keep the coordinates with the output JPEG and it
works great, example:
C:\gdal115a\bin>gdal_translate -of GTiff -co "QUALITY=n" 1n2e.tif 1n2e.jpg
Hope this was of some help, -matt

Dear Mr. Warmerdam and List,
I use the 'out-of-the-box' Mapserver Win32 binary. I've never compiled
MapServer myself. I recently downloaded the binary with GDAL support. I
want to generate overviews of my tiffs with gdaladdo but I haven't the
foggiest idea of how to do that. The MapserverWiki has this:
warmerda at gdal[430]% gdaladdo
Usage: gdaladdo [-r {nearest,average,average_mp,average_magphase,mode}]
filename levels
Example:
% gdaladdo -r average abc.tif 2 4 8 16
What is this? What language is this? Where is this gdalladdo? Why is it
that as soon as I think I get a handle on things, I realize how little I
know?
