What about opening issue in GDAL ?

Looks like there's already a relevant issue. I'll try building libtiff with lerc to see if that fixes it…

You should be able to verify with

git checkout l0b0/libtiff-lerc-support
git cherry-pick l0b0/gdal-test-separation
git cherry-pick l0b0/gdal-lerc-support
nix-build --attr pkgs.gdal.passthru.tests

You should be able to verify with

git checkout l0b0/libtiff-lerc-support
git cherry-pick l0b0/gdal-test-separation
git cherry-pick l0b0/gdal-lerc-support
nix-build --attr pkgs.gdal.passthru.tests.compress-lerc

git checkout l0b0/libtiff-lerc-support
git cherry-pick l0b0/gdal-test-separation
git cherry-pick l0b0/gdal-lerc-support
nix-build --attr pkgs.gdal.passthru.tests.compress-lerc

(It takes forever to build, though.)

What about trying tiffinfo to check which compression is enabled

I did verify using that (or one of the other executables included in libtiff; I don't remember), but I don't know of any good TIFFs I could use for the test. Ideally I'd use libtiff to create a 1x1 LERC TIFF and then read its info, but libtiff doesn't seem to come with CLI tools to create TIFFs.

Then use gdal to create the tiff file.

Something like

gdal_create -outsize 10 10 -co COMPRESS=LERC_DEFLATE test.tif

gdalinfo works as well

with gdal: Test LERC support #290292 I am able to do:

nix-build -A gdal

./result/bin/gdal_create -outsize 10 10 -co COMPRESS=LERC_DEFLATE test.tif

./result/bin/gdalinfo test.tif
Driver: GTiff/GeoTIFF
Files: test.tif
Size is 10, 10
Image Structure Metadata:
  COMPRESSION=LERC_DEFLATE
  INTERLEAVE=BAND
  LERC_VERSION=2.4
Corner Coordinates:
Upper Left  (    0.0,    0.0)
Lower Left  (    0.0,   10.0)
Upper Right (   10.0,    0.0)
Lower Right (   10.0,   10.0)
Center      (    5.0,    5.0)
Band 1 Block=10x10 Type=Byte, ColorInterp=Gray

So many issues in those few instructions in elevation README :)

In reply to @vengmark2:matrix.org
Would it be useful to add enable* ? true parameters for each of the optional dependencies, in case someone wants a minimal libtiff? Or is that too much control?
