Thanks for the replied Guys. My use of GDAL is very generic, allowing any end user visuaise any image format that GDAL supports via a web browser using a Java backing with JNI bindings to GDAL binaries. (This particular 6MB ECW file is one of hundreds that I've tested)
The code as-is works for all image formats and for sub-portions of the ECW file. I guess my question should be more directed to the Java bindings directly and if there is anythings that I can do there... As its at this stage (allocating the Java memory in byte[] that my applicaiton is running out of memory) Thanks, Ronan On 18 November 2010 15:54, Greg Coats <gregco...@mac.com> wrote: > From a JPEG2000 image, you can use kdu_expand -reduce to quickly extract an > image of the top (or any other) level pyramid.
