I want to work with TIFF files of aeronautical charts supplied by the FAA here.
The python module rasterio seems to be the right tool for my purposes and I’ve been through several tutorials and reference docs. They all work for me, but not with the the data I want to use. I cannot seem to get it to display properly in color.
The main difference seems to be that my data is single band (as reported by dataset.count) whereas all the tutorials have three or more bands.
For example, the following code should display the chart:
import rasterio
from rasterio.plot import show
dataset = rasterio.open ('Green_Bay_101/Green Bay SEC 101.tif')
show(dataset)
The resulting plot has the colors all wrong.

But it should look like this:

I’m sure that I’m missing something basic, but I cannot find it. Would someone please point it out?
Thank you!
