Hi All,
I've built a vrt with 176 images.

I now need to mosaic this whole area into roughly 5 x 5 ortho images.

How can I force the white edges into background of the overlapping orthos? I'm a little cautious of simply (finding a way to) making "white" transparent as it is only the white on the edges that need to be backgrounded.

Hi again,
Since the above post, I have tried different ways to set nodata, but to no avail - I still get the white edges:
(see jpeg sent with my original post)

gdalbuildvrt -addalpha -hidenodata -input_file_list files 177_untiled_orthos_nodata.vrt gdalbuildvrt -srcnodata "0 0 0" -addalpha -hidenodata -input_file_list files 177_untiled_orthos_blk.vrt gdalbuildvrt -srcnodata "255 255 255" -addalpha -hidenodata -input_file_list files 177_untiled_orthos_white.vrt

How should I be masking out the nodata (or even white pixels) so that when I mosaic a bunch of tiffs together, I dont get the white stripes in the resulting image?

Using GDAL 1.7.3, released 2010/11/10 on Ubuntu 10.04
Viewing with Quantum GIS - 1.6.0-Trunk on Ubuntu 10.04 (same box).
...but running the whole lot in xterms with Xming & putty from my WinVista box.


Regards,
Zoltan
