Erdas IMG will not draw when zoomed in past 1:8000

[DanielWeckstein]

I am currently using ArcGIS 10 with Service pack 1 installed. I have an Erdas IMG file that is Very large it is 1band and a 1bit raster. When i zoom in to anything below 1:8000 the image dissappears. once I zoom out beyond 1:8000 i can see the image. I have tried recalculationg stats and building pyramids in erdas and even improting the file into a geodatabase in arc. None of these things worked. Everything worked fine with this fill in ArcGIS 9.3.1. Does anyone have any suggestions

I found that Esri logged a Bug NIM061128 for this issue with IMG files larger than 2 GB.
There are two different workarounds for this issue:

• Rename the image with it's original name: http://resources.arcgis.com/content/kbase?fa=articleShow&d=38544


• Recreate the raster in ArcGIS 9.3.1: http://resources.arcgis.com/content/nimbus-bug?bugID=TklNMDYxMTI4

I tested the first one and now I can see the image in any scale!

I hope this help!

This issue is a bug in ArcGIS 10.0 and 10.0 SP 1. It is expected to be fixed in SP 2. SP 2 is planned to be available in late April/early May. You can see a complete list targeted issues at this link:

I am having a similar problem with .tif files that have NOT been renamed.  My files are scanned historic aerials that are over 80mb.   I have close to 30 files that I am georefernecing to create simple maps.  Any suggestions?

Hi Louise,
The above mentioned bug/discussion is strictly limited to ERDAS IMAGINE formats.

For the display issue related to TIFF or other formats, could you please contact Technical Support so we can work with you to get a reproducible case?

Has this issue been resolved in regards to tiff images not drawing at certain zoom levels? We just started using Arc 10 and we are trying to use tiffs that worked fine in 9.3 but they are disappearing past certain zoom levels.

I found a few possibly related reported bugs:

NIM059337: Binary Raster (1-bit TIFF) disappears at certain zoom levels when using the classified renderer.

currently open; not marked as fixed.

NIM067353: Tiff image shifts when zoomed out and displays in correct location when zoomed in.

Fixed in 10 sp3 and 10.1. Workaround: export to a new tiff.

I don't have any more information on these, and these were the only ones that showed up on a "tiff zoom" search related to v10.
