Re: [OSSIM] Direction on how to install on Ubuntu 22.04

Hi Trey,

Is the nitf j2k compressed? If so, you need a plugin. Either kakadu, gdal
compiled with j2k support, openjpeg. You can test by doing:

$ ossim-info -d  5V090205P0001912264B220000100282M_001508507.ntf | grep IC
// C8 is j2k.
nitf.image0.IC:  C8

// With no plugins:
$ ossim-info  5V090205P0001912264B220000100282M_001508507.ntf
ossimInfo::openImage ERROR:
Could not open: 5V090205P0001912264B220000100282M_001508507.ntf

// Added kakadu plugin:
$ ossim-info  5V090205P0001912264B220000100282M_001508507.ntf
...
image0.driver:  ossim_kakadu_nitf_reader
...
image0.type:  ossimKakaduNitfReader

To test your config you can use:

// dumps preferences file:
$ ossim-info --config

// plugins:
$ ossim-info --plugins

// Check config:
$ ossim-info --check-config

Hope that helps,
Dave
