[postgis-devel] PostGIS Raster problem

Hi, 
I understand what you said but Is it possible 
that the GDAL driver uses the ST_MetaData() function of PostGIS ? I’m using GDAL 1.8. I 
don’t think that the problem is the version of GDAL because when I'm using 
gdal_translate  with an old version of PostGIS I'm having a good result but when 
I'm using the version r7616 there is a problem. Like I said the x and y of the 
upper left corner and the resolution of the data extracted are rounded. It is 
exactly the same result of the ST_MetaData() function executed in an SQL API. It 
is why I have suspected the problem in the ST_MetaData() function. Do you think 
there is an other possibility ? Anyway I will intall the new version of PostGIS 
and I will see.
Thanks


David
