Hi Scott,
As I mentioned to Laurentiu, I'm still not getting the handle on how to
use overviews but will keep working at it. However, this is only useful
to me (and probably to other people) if they can be used from a python
script, not from the OS.
Thanks,
Arturo

As a test you can skip the whole python debacle and try this:
gdal_translate -f COG -co COMPRESS=DEFLATE -scale 0 255 -ot Byte
source.tif target.tif

Hello,
I'm generating a raster file with GDAL. The pseudo-code (where the >
raster is loaded as 'var') for the colored version reads:
# Initial manipulations
dims = var.dimensions
shape = var.shape
driver_name = 'GTIFF'
driver = gdal.GetDriverByName(driver_name)
np_dtype = var.dtype
type_code = gdal_array.NumericTypeCodeToGDALTypeCode(np_dtype)
gdal_ds = driver.Create(_my_path_, cols, rows, 1, >
gdal.GDT_UInt16)
gdal_ds.SetProjection(_my_projection_)
gdal_ds.SetGeoTransform(_my_transformation_)
# Creation of the bands and scaled matrix
band = gdal_ds.GetRasterBand(1)
data = var[_chosen_index_]
data = ma.getdata(data)
data_scaled = np.interp(data, (data.min(), data.max()), (0, > 255))
data_scaled2 = data_scaled.astype(int) # This is to
rescale > into integers so that it can color the layer
# *** Lines to set up the color palette ***
# Write the array to band once everything has been rescaled
band.WriteArray(data_scaled2)
gdal_ds.FlushCache()
This works well but the problem is that the generated file becomes

The new file has a size smaller than 1% of the colored one. I was >

Thanks.
