Read

//val data: ByteArray = ...

val tiffFile: TIFFImage = TiffReader(data).readTiff()
val fileDirectories: List<FileDirectory> = tiffFile?.fileDirectories

// read the first directory in tiff file
val fileDirectory = fileDirectories[0]
val rasters: TypedRasters = fileDirectory.readTypedRasters()

// get the width and height
val rasterWidth = rasters.width
val rasterHeight = rasters.height

val samples1: ShortArray = (rasters.samples[0] as TypedSample.ShortSample).data
val samples2: ShortArray = (rasters.samples[1] as TypedSample.ShortSample).data

Write

val tiffImage: TiffImage = ...
val tiffBytes: ByteArray = TiffWriter().writeTiffToBytes(tiffImage)
