Saved rasterisation .tif is seen as invalid by gdalinfo

[felixcremer]

When I save the result of a rasterisation into a .tif file I can't open this file in QGIS for comparison and gdalinfo reports th error below.
I would have expected, that I could open the file with QGIS to compare against the rasterisation of gdal_rasterize.The julia code which I ran is below and I attached an example file with which I run into this problem.
When I write the Raster which I got from opening the .tif file the resulting .tif file seems to be valid.

This is the gdalerror:

$ gdalinfo rastersaved_freqrastif.tif 
ERROR 6: rastersaved_freqrastif.tif: Unsupported TIFF configuration: BitsPerSample(=64) and SampleType(=2)
gdalinfo failed - unable to open 'rastersaved_freqrastif.tif'.

using Rasters, Shapefile
julia> shp = Shapefile.Table("palsar_3paths_v4_save00_poly_paleovarzea_frequently_buffer_90.shp")
julia> freqras = Raster("gdal_rasterized_frequently.tif")
julia> rasnc = rasterize(shp, to=freqras[:,:,1], fill=1, name=Symbol("freqbin_rasterized_rasters_from_nc"))
julia> write("rastersaved_freqrastif.tif", rasnc)

This works fine on my system, and Rasters.jl is reading and writing it with GDAL too.

So I would guess the problem is your system gdal is older than your julia GDAL_jll, and doesn't yet read Int64. It's only recently that that was possible with GDAL. You can use fill=UInt8(1) for a smaller file that works everywhere.

Thanks, using the UInt8 filling works for me.
