Re: [udig-devel] How to add GeoTiff from code
|
Second approach is good; usually the CRS data has to be baked into your TIFF file (that is what makes it a GeoTIFF).
If you don't have such information you could consider adding a "world file" and a "prj" sidecar file. ie same filename but with different extensions.
You can also right click on your layer and "force" the CRS. Users can do this to make up for data such as this where the CRS was not provided. You may need to look into the code for layer properties to see what was actually set to make this happen. And then you could do the same thing as a programmer.
Do note however that this is a workaround for data that is missing and should be provided.
