Script to generate IMG files from GeoTIFF files

[JinMast]

Hello,

This forum helped me a lot to get started with Garmin so it makes sense now to contribute with this notice:
Just created a script (Python) to convert GeoTIFF images to Garmin's IMG mapset file:

Thanks also to SAS Planet Project. The source code helped me understanding the silly MTX config file.

Cheers

How does one use the script? Within GDAL, or???

Hi babj,

It's a python script and the script uses gdal. Basically must have python ( and pillow python package) and gdal installed on computer. Change the first lines of the script pointing to your files and settings then run 'python GTIFFtoIMG.py'.

No need to install gdal for python (gdal python bindings). If gdal works on command line, thats all it gets to run. Gdal is a bit annoying to install, this looks like a nice tuto for it [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
