Which layers are in the file
This file for the selected area contains:
- Roads
- Buildings
- Water
- Greenery
- Points of interest
Geometry by layer
- Roads — drawn as lines in pixels, no separate features
- Buildings — drawn as filled pixels, no separate features
- Water — drawn as filled pixels
- Greenery — drawn as filled pixels
- Points of interest — drawn as icons in pixels
What the file carries
The GeoTIFF file for Brunei: layers are flattened into one picture: objects become pixels and cannot be selected separately, OpenStreetMap tags are not kept — geometry and styling remain.
File size
The expected size of the GeoTIFF file for Brunei is about 13 MB; the exact size depends on the chosen layers and area.

How to use GeoTIFF for Brunei
- QGIS (free) — drag the .tif into the program window: the layer lands in place and the projection is detected automatically.
- ArcGIS and Global Mapper — Add Data; the raster attaches as an underlay beneath your vector layers.
- Google Earth Pro — File → Import, choose the GeoTIFF: the map lands on the globe (for heavy files the program will offer to reduce the resolution).

FAQ: GeoTIFF for Brunei
What's the difference between GeoTIFF and regular TIFF?
GeoTIFF contains coordinate and projection metadata, allowing GIS software to position it correctly.
Can I open GeoTIFF in QGIS?
Yes, QGIS natively supports GeoTIFF and auto-detects the projection.
GeoTIFF or COG?
COG (Cloud Optimized GeoTIFF) is a GeoTIFF extension for cloud services. For local work, regular GeoTIFF is better.
At what resolution does the raster arrive?
300 DPI by default — print quality. The image size in pixels depends on the resolution and the sheet size, so a large area at high DPI gives a heavy file.
What compression is the file packed with?
LZW — lossless compression: the pixels are not damaged, and the file is noticeably smaller than an uncompressed TIFF. All GIS programs and graphics editors understand it.
