Installing GraphicsMagick or ImageMagick isn’t at all needed, determining the dimensions of a image is as easy as looking at the header. image-size is a pure javascript implementation of said feature which is very easy to use.

var sizeOf = require('image-size');
sizeOf('images/funny-cats.png', function (err, dimensions) {
console.log(dimensions.width, dimensions.height);
});
