I'm working with GeoTiff related files and would like to know what's a good viewer to see the outcome of my work? It needs to work on a Windows machine.

Thanks.

ERViewer from ERMapper was good, you need to register now to get it from ERDAS:

https://download.hexagongeospatial.com/downloads/imagine/erdas-er-viewer-2014-v14-01 Irfanview can also open GeoTIFF, but won't be as efficient for very large files.

OpenEV in the GDAL suite will also display GeoTIFF: http://openev.sourceforge.net/ - GDAL is very helpful in general for GeoTIFF.

Manifold 9.0 is also very good, there's a free viewer for use on Windows. http://www.manifold.net/viewer.shtml

You can also use uDig for viewing GeoTiff (and other GIS-data): http://udig.refractions.net/

  • uDig for windows has deteriorated and appears to be unsupported. You can install it but as I found, and other users confirm dating back a few years it won't run. – Elliptical view Apr 04 '14 at 22:05
