Subject: r.in.gdal support for MrSID included

Platform: WindowsNT/2000/XP
grass obtained from: CVS
grass binary for platform: Compiled from Sources
GRASS Version: 5.4

Dearest Help!

For the next version of GRASS would it be possible to include a MrSID import
option with r.in.gdal.

I understand that the MrSID can be converted to a geotiff and then imported but
then you start to loose the effeicency of having the MrSID -by quickly loosing
disk space with the conversions to geotiffs.

I am a moderate user, which means I have a low level of understanding how to
compile the code necessary to do such a task.  Is there a GRASS user conference
coming up that would deal with such a matter?  It might be worth my time and
effort to join.

Thank you for your time and help!!

GRASS ROCKS!

r.in.gdal supports whatever formats GDAL supports. GDAL can be
compiled to support MrSID, however it requires a non-free library.

Glynn is right. Your request is not Grass specific, thus closing it.

Good Grassing! Do not hesitate to report other bugs/wishes in future.

Best,
Maciek
