Third party software supplies additional features to the gCube framework. In the following sections installation details are given for external software used by the gCube framework.
GDAL Installation
The Geospatial Data Abstraction Library (GDAL) is a translator library for raster geospatial data formats that is released under an X/MIT style Open Source license by the Open Source Geospatial Foundation. As a library, it presents a single abstract data model to the calling application for all supported formats. It also comes with a variety of useful command line utilities for data translation and processing.
