NAME
       geotifcp - Copy TIFF with updated GeoTIFF Metadata


SYNOPSIS
       geotifcp [options] [-e esri_worldfile] [-g metadata] input output

DESCRIPTION
       geotifcp is identical in function to the LIBTIFF program tiffcp, with
       the additional feature that if the "-g" option is used the GeoTIFF
       information from the file will be installed into the output file.  The
       "-e worldfile" option will override the tiepoint and scale information
       from the metadata file based on the contents of the ESRI worldfile.

       If the "-g" option is not used the geotiff information from the source
       file is preserved in the new output file.

       "geotifcp" inherits all the other file-transformation capabilities of
       the tiffcp program; for help on the additional parameters give the
       command:


       % geotifcp -h


       The metadata format is the same as is described in the listgeo(1)
       program.  Normally metadata files for use with geotifcp are generated
       from a similar file with listgeo, and then modified by hand as
       required.


OPTIONS
       -g file
              install GeoTIFF metadata from file

       -4 proj4_str
              install GeoTIFF metadata from proj4 string

       -e file
              install positioning info from ESRI Worldfile file

       -a     append to output instead of overwriting

       -8     write BigTIFF instead of default ClassicTIFF

       -o offset
              set initial directory offset

       -p contig
              pack samples contiguously (e.g. RGBRGB...)

       -p separate
              store samples separately (e.g. RRR...GGG...BBB...)

       -s     write output in strips

       -t     write output in tiles

       -i     ignore read errors

       -d     truncate 8 bitspersample to 4bitspersample

       -r #   make each strip have no more than # rows

       -w #   set output tile width (pixels)

       -l #   set output tile length (pixels)

       -f lsb2msb
              force lsb-to-msb FillOrder for output

       -f msb2lsb
              force msb-to-lsb FillOrder for output

       -c lzw[:opts]
              compress output with Lempel-Ziv & Welch encoding

       -c zip[:opts]
              compress output with deflate encoding

       -c jpeg[:opts]
              compress output with JPEG encoding

       -c packbits
              compress output with packbits encoding

       -c g3[:opts]
              compress output with CCITT Group 3 encoding

       -c g4  compress output with CCITT Group 4 encoding

       -c none
              use no compression algorithm on output

       Group 3 options:

       1d     use default CCITT Group 3 1D-encoding

       2d     use optional CCITT Group 3 2D-encoding

       fill   byte-align EOL codes

       For example, -c g3:2d:fill to get G3-2D-encoded data with byte-aligned
       EOLs

       JPEG options:

       #      set compression quality level (0-100, default 75)

       r      output color image as RGB rather than YCbCr

       For example, -c jpeg:r:50 to get JPEG-encoded RGB data with 50% comp.
       quality

       LZW and deflate options:

       #      set predictor value

       For example, -c lzw:2 to get LZW-encoded data with horizontal
       differencing
