Can we compress these files?

source ~/proyectos/CES/cesdata/env/project-env.sh


mkdir -p $GISDATA/soil/regional/soil-landscape-grid-australia
cd $GISDATA/soil/regional/soil-landscape-grid-australia
gzip SOC_100_200_EV_N_P_AU_TRN_C_20140801.tif ## minimal compression because it is already using LZW
