I reclassified a raster layer as a geotiffs using ArcGIS 10.5. The resulting reclassified raster had two values in the ArcGIS reclassify function, NoData and 1.

When I bring the geotiff into QGIS 2.18 the raster displays black with nan values. I have tried to reclassify the resulting geotiff using GRASS but that returned an error. Both QGIS and GRASS freak out over nan values!

How do I get this geotiff to display the nan values as transparent and the 1 values to display a color?

You probably need to set the nodata value for the raster. Using a tool such as gdal_translate with the option

-a_nodata -99999

or some other number that will never be used in your data, will likely help to get better results in bot ArcGIS and QGIS.

I hope this helps
