Subject: Re: GISList: Working with large rasters ~100Gb and GIS
Date:  03/17/2003 10:17:18 AM
From:  Jayachandran Mani



hi,
In my experience with Aerial photographic mosaic, most
of the digital photogrammetry softwares failed in
handling a 1 + GB image file. It took more than 20 min
for opening the file to have a glimpse. In photoshop
we are not even able to open the file.

All the best for ur work.
