The format supports +raster attribute tables, image pyramids, meta-data and in-built statistics while +also handling very large files and compression throughout. + +Based on the HDF5 standard, it also provides a base from which other formats can +be derived and is a good choice for long term data archiving. An independent +software library (libkea) provides complete access to the KEA image format and a +GDAL driver allowing KEA images to be used from any GDAL supported software. |
