COGDumper downloads the whole header

Open palmerj opened this issue 6 years ago • 1 comments

COGDumper downloads the whole header. See this example which is a BIGTIFF with a 400mb header!

cogdumper http --server https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com --path linz-test-data --resource auckland_urban_2017_0.075m_cog.tif --xyz 0 0 0

Note GDAL when built with internal libtiff only downloads the parts of the header required for data or overview tiles requests

Note this is with JPEG compression and 1bit mask. I'm going to try with WebP next, but I don't think it will resolve the way headers are downloads by COGDumper. Also I see #6 needs to be implemented too for COGDumper to read WebP compressed GeoTiffs.
