GDALDriver* driver = GetGDALDriverManager()->GetDriverByName("GTiff"); const char* driverName = driver->GetMetadataItem(GDAL_DMD_LONGNAME);
GDALDriver* driver = GetGDALDriverManager()->GetDriverByName("JP2KAK"); const char* driverAuthor = driver->GetMetadataItem(GDAL_DMD_CREATIONDATETIME);In this example, we create a pointer to a GDAL Driver object with the name "JP2KAK". We then use GetMetadataItem to retrieve the creation date and time of the driver, which also happens to contain the author's name. The package library for GDALDriver GetMetadata is GDAL or Geospatial Data Abstraction Library, which is a C++ library for reading and writing raster and vector geospatial data formats. It is a widely-used library in the geospatial industry and is often used in GIS software applications.
