[Geotiff] Geotiff creation in Java

[Anselm Schmieder]

I would like to create geotiff images with my code in java.
Currently, I use the Java Advanced Imaging and my tiff creation looks
like this:
 
java.io.File imgDir = new java.io.File(tmpDir);
java.io.File imgFile = java.io.File.createTempFile("imf",".tif",imgDir);
javax.imageio.ImageIO.write(map.getImage(),"tif",imgFile);
 
I can also retrieve coordinate information etc. necessary to write these
geokeys/tags into the header to make a geotiff out of it.
 
I found Niles Ritters geotiff-jai.jar at SourceForge, but I could not
find any documentation 
like an object model doc about it. 
 
How can I use it? Has anybody an example code to create a geotiff in
Java?
 
Thanks,
 
Anselm
