[Geotools-devel] Re: [Fwd: Re: GeoTiffReader]

[Bryce L N. <bno...@fs...>]

Scott,

Ok, we started quite a discussion on geotools-devel about this yesterday.
If you are on Windows, the quickest (and ironically, the most complete) fix
for you is to download and install the EPSG database as per the
instructions on:
http://modules.geotools.org/main/apidocs/org/geotools/referencing/factory/epsg/package-summary.html


in the section concerning installation on Windows.  You will also need the
epsg-access plugin.

If you are not on windows, I fear you have caught Geotools with it's pants
down.  In this case, the quickest fix is for me to make a modification to
the GeoTIFF source such that it can use the epsg-wkt plugin (which I will
be doing anyway).  This approach, however, severely reduces the number of
projections the Geotiff reader can read.   In the future, there will be a
way to access the full epsg database from non-Windows platforms.

So: If you're on windows, try the above.  If you're not on windows,
download the new Geotiff code when it gets done.  (Hopefully today).
