.
GDAL supports 40+ popular data formats, including commonly used
ones (GeoTIFF, JPEG, PNG and more) as well as the ones used in
GIS and remote sensing software packages (ERDAS Imagine,
ESRI Arc/Info, ENVI, PCI Geomatics). Also supported many remote
sensing and scientific data distribution formats such as HDF,
EOS FAST, NOAA L1B, NetCDF, FITS.
.
OGR library supports popular vector formats like ESRI Shapefile,
TIGER data, S57, MapInfo File, DGN, GML and more.
.
This package contains utility programs, based on GDAL/OGR library,
namely gdal_translate, gdalinfo, gdaladdo, gdalwarp, ogr2ogr, ogrinfo,
