SID to GeoTIFF conversion error

I'm getting the error message then converting SID file to GeoTIFF raster:

1MRSID reader: MrSIDRasterBand::IRasterIO(): Failed to load image. mg2d internal error [8021]
2MRSID reader: Failed to retrieve data from the source dataset

Any ideas how to solve this?

You can also read Pyramid layer 1 - instead of default 0 to get this in FME: Then it has the resolution original resolution / 2 = 1m.

Hi @fikusas,

Can it be that the lack of coordinate system elements (datum and ellipsoid) are causing the issue?

I think it can't be a problem, 'cause all other SID files aren't with defined coordsys either, but don't give this kind of error.

From what I could find online it seems that some lines in the raster are corrupted. Not a big help but opening with GDAL provides the same error and since FME uses GDAL this is to be expected, so I think the issue is the input raster.

Maybe the SID file is damaged, thus unreadable...

I used Geoviewer from Lizardtech to open the file - free - https://www.extensis.com/support/geoviewer-9

When exporting it seems to give an error

So there is definitely something wrong with a part of the image although it can be viewed partially within the viewer.

I think you have to contact Lizardtech - they might have a MrSIDFix.exe or similar (seem to remember this from way back)

Exporting 1m resolution instead of 0.5m resolution works OK. So there is something wrong with the innermost layer. At least you got some of the data :)
