[udig-devel] Re: ImageIO-GDAL integration

[Paul Ramsey]

I would very much like to see an ECW driver or (even better) a JP2000  
driver from this project, as such a thing would be widely useful for  
end users.  My priority order would be: JP2000, LAN, ECW, AUX.  I  
assume GeoTIFF is already handled by the existing coverage work?  If  
not, it would go first.
