==Converting to/from GPKG==▼
<br>
Cloud Optimised GeoTIFFs (COGs) are a format of GeoTIFF which are set up to allow easy storage and distribution via the Cloud. The GeoTIFFs are formatted slightly differently with internal tiling, overviews and compression which makes it easier to access and download parts of the data corresponding to the particular study area of interest, without the requirement to download the entire file first. COGs aren't currently supported by the 2023 version of TUFLOW. Currently they would need to be converted using gdal translate.<Br>

You can also do the conversion with the compression options described '''<u>[[Raster_Format_Conversion_Using_gdal_translate#Adding_Compression_To_GeoTIFF | above]]</u>'''.

The conversion is a mostly a matter of renaming the header text (it should not be case sensitive in TUFLOW). There is one exception to this, the "tie-point" is different in the "EHdr" format. The "EHdr" format referencingreferences the middle of the top-left cell, whereas the "FLT" format supported in TUFLOW expects the lower-left corner (similar to the ASC format).<Br>

Line 97 ⟶ 106:
: <b>''Note 2:''</b> "byteorder LSBFIRST" is only applicable if "BYTEORDER=I" in the exported ".hdr"
: <b>''Note 3:''</b> TUFLOW currenlty only supports square grid cells (XDIM = YDIM)
: <b>''Note 4:''</b> "FLT" only suppots single band rasters, "EHdr" supports multiple bands and so does "GeoTIFF", therefore be careful if converting to an "EHdr" from a "GeoTIFF" that contains multiple bands.
