[Qgis-user] Tiff with jpeg compression

Hi Randal, 

A crash is always a  bug, in my opinion, even if your file isn't
optimized. 

Note, that the correct parameter is "tiled=yes" not "tiles=yes". Not
sure if this helps. 

Fyi - here is one of my examples with gdal_warp: 

gdalwarp -of GTiff -wm 500 --config GDAL_CACHEMAX 500 -multi -wo
NUM_THREADS=2 -wo OPTIMIZE_SIZE=TRUE -srcnodata "255 255 255" -dstnodata
'255 255 255' -t_srs 'EPSG:2056' -co 'BIGTIFF=YES' -co 'TILED=YES' -co
'COMPRESS=JPEG' -co 'JPEG_QUALITY=85' -co 'PHOTOMETRIC=YCBCR' -co
'SPARSE_OK=TRUE' Originaldaten/*.tif DOP2011_LV95.tif 

the PHOTOMETRIC=YCBCR is specifically to be used for aerial images or
satellite images. 

Of course, for good performance, you also need the pyramids: 

gdaladdo -r cubic --config BIGTIFF_OVERVIEW YES --config
COMPRESS_OVERVIEW JPEG --config JPEG_QUALITY 85 --config
PHOTOMETRIC_OVERVIEW YCBCR --config INTERLEAVE_OVERVIEW PIXEL
DOP2016_LV95.tif 2 4 8 16 32 64 128 256 

Hope this helps, 

Andreas
