[Geoserver-users] Problem configuring JPEG WorldImages (works with identical PNG)

I made some testing and it really is so that this undocumented (?) .meta file makes Geoserver to find correct bounds for the jpeg image. Projection is found from the .prj file.

Hi,

Have a look at the default data_dir. From data_dir\coverages\img_sample you can find an image “usa.jpeg” which you can publish simply by creating a store and layer. Perhaps the secret is in the file “usa.meta” which has contents:

Layer Name = Map Capture 1111440603125

Origin Longitude = -130.85168

Origin Latitude = 20.7052

Corner Longitude = -62.0054

Corner Latitude = 54.1141

Now we need some developer to tell how to write this .meta file. Obviously a .prj file is needed as well.

Thank you very much for all the suggestions. We want to offer our users the option to upload JPGs, but we might consider to re-code the image before sending it to Geoserver. I assume the best option is Geotiff using tiles and overviews.

@Jukka: I have tried several variation, such as renaming the .wld to .jgw, the .jpg to .jpeg, including or excluding the .xml generated by gdal, etc. No one worked.

In any case, I will open a ticket as suggested.

By the looks of this error it seems that the Java own JPEG reader cannot recognize this JPEG variant.

Never seen this error, but I agree with Jukka, serving world files is a recipe for slowness, there

is no inner tiling, every time one has to go, read and un-compress the entire image even if

the area of interest is a small bit.

Anyways, as an alternative to try out, you could install the turbo-jpeg extension:

http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/extensions/libjpeg-turbo/index.html

It is advertised as an output format, but as far as I know the library also comes as a reader

which might replace the Java built in one. You might give a go at it and see if this

one car read your file.

In any case, I’d open a ticket and attach a sample file that cannot be opened.

Cheers

In this case, it seems to be related with the JPEG format and not with the geo-referencing part (see bug https://osgeo-org.atlassian.net/browse/GEOS-7409 ), since I’ve eventually managed to successfully publish a JPEG without .meta file (by converting the file several times using gdal_translate).
