#6272 closed enhancement (fixed)

GeoTIFF driver should automatically set PHOTOMETRIC=RGB

Description

Currently the GeoTIFF drivers assigns PHOTOMETRIC=RGB only for 3 bands (or 4 bands with ALPHA=YES) dataset at creation, and when datatype=Byte. For datasets with more bands, even if one manually sets the color interpretation of bands 1,2,3 to Red,Green,Blue, PHOTOMETRIC=RGB isn't set.
