qgis - Importing raster files in GeoPackage


I recently started using the GeoPackage format for vector data and I am very pleased with it. Its documentation mentions that it can also store raster data.


How can those be imported in an existing (or new) GeoPackage using QGIS or other open-source software, and what are its limitations?




Answer



Use gdal_translate to convert your raster data set to geopackage you will need to also use gdaladdo to build zoom levels/overviews. You can also convert you folder of XYZ Google tiles to geopackage with tiles2gpkg_parallel.py
