Good Hump day morning. I am finishing up a project for a client. Exactly what they ordered. 2 Inch pixel resolution, which is very high res and makes silly big files of the roadway project we flew for them. It is a 3.8 GB tiff file, the point cloud LAS file is 5.2 GB and has just 159 million points. The DSM file is just 3.6 GB. And they finally get sent, and the client says it chokes his computer. The surveyor client is using a Win XP system with 4 GB of RAM. WTF! I had to bite my tongue to not tell him to go buy a modern computer with Win 10 Pro and at a minimum, I7 or I8 CPU and 32 GB of RAM. He is trying to run at Le Mans in Herbie the Love bug, and Herbie is dead so it's just an old bug. Grumble Grumble.
Oh and does not have up to date software so he can't even open the compressed versions of files like JPEG2000 files. I have to make a PNG because JPEG and TIFF both can't handle files that big. Grumble Grumble.
