Building with GDAL requires GTIFF #186

Closed robe2 closed 10 years ago

robe2 commented 10 years ago

When I choose to build with GDAL, it requires me to also have GTIFF (which has a ton of dependencies I have to build first). For GDAL I've been using the internal GTIFF implementation. Is there a reason PDAL can't use the internal GDAL GTIFF driver when building with GDAL?

GDAL doesn't export GeoTIFF's symbols into shared libraries, and PDAL uses GeoTIFF directly to manipulate the header information of ASPRS LAS files that use GeoTIFF as their coordinate system description system.
