A JavaScript-based parser for the GeoTIFF image format. This parser is based on the GPHemsley/tiff-js : canvas part has been removed, but GeoTiff geoKey has been added. Not all Tiff capacity has been coded.

Some part of the code is a port from LibGeoTiff 1.4.0 <BR> See http://trac.osgeo.org/geotiff for geoTiff information<BR>
Why GeotiffParser.js ?
My attempt is to parse GeoTiff files coming from a WCS server (I'm using a Geoserver) in order to do some computation like obtaining the elevation along a path. With GeoTiff client side you could also change dynamically the rendering function.
