I’m looking for a way to access raster layers in an Esri File-GeoDatabase without using ArcObjects or ArcPy, specifically I would like to access the raster layers with GDAL. I understand that the GDAL FileGDB and OpenFileGDB give access to vector datasets within File-GeoDatabases, and that ESRI’s own FileGDB C++ API does not support raster access.
Is anyone out there aware of any open source solutions? Or any ongoing efforts? I’m happy to contribute to any current efforts.
