[Qgis-user] import raw binary raster data

[Nicolas Cadieux]

Hi,

r.in.bin is not available in the processing.  Is there an EASY way to 
import into QGIS a raw binary raster data set?  According to 
https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/qgis-user/2010-October/010157.html, 
there was such a plugin in the past.  If there is not an easy way, I 
guess creating a VRT file and using GDAL will be the only way out.

If I need to use a VRT file, what would be the <ByteOrder> value for a 
big endian byte order?  LSB or MSB?  (or am I getting the byte order 
thing wrong???) I am on Windows 10.

Thanks

Nicolas
