tifviewer
This tool provides a simple GeoTIFF viewer for the command line, enabling quick visualization of various geospatial data formats. It supports single-band GeoTIFFs, RGB composites, HDF, NetCDF files, and raster datasets within Esri File Geodatabases, with optional vector overlays. It is designed for fast previews and sanity checks rather than detailed analysis.
tifviewer is a lightweight GeoTIFF viewer designed for rapid visualization directly from the command line. It allows users to quickly view various geospatial data types, including single-band GeoTIFFs, RGB composites, HDF, and NetCDF files. The tool also supports raster datasets found within Esri File Geodatabases, offering the capability to display these with vector overlays in a simple Qt-based window.
This utility is primarily intended for quick viewing and sanity checks of geospatial data, not for comprehensive or rigorous analysis. It serves as an efficient preview tool, complementing more extensive GIS or scientific analysis software. Installation is straightforward via pip, with optional dependencies available for vector overlay and NetCDF support, requiring Python 3.10 or higher and a graphical display environment.
Users can install the base viewer with pip install viewtif and add vector overlay support using pip install "viewtif[geo]". For NetCDF file visualization, pip install "viewtif[netcdf]" is required. The tool emphasizes ease of use for developers and analysts needing to quickly inspect geospatial raster data.
