[Gdal-dev] Need a sanity check on processing imagery

[Stephen Woodbridge]

Frank,

Thank you! for the feedback. I have one question one this part:

What is the easiest way to do this. Is it as simple as offsetting the 
corners below by 0.5 before doing my projection to latlong?

$ gdalinfo -nomd naip_1-1_1n_s_ut057_2006_1.sid
Driver: MrSID/Multi-resolution Seamless Image Database (MrSID)
Size is 95310, 41990
Coordinate System is `'
Origin = (373650.000000,4588120.000000)
Pixel Size = (1.00000000,-1.00000000)
Corner Coordinates:
Upper Left  (  373650.000, 4588120.000)
Lower Left  (  373650.000, 4546130.000)
Upper Right (  468960.000, 4588120.000)
Lower Right (  468960.000, 4546130.000)
Center      (  421305.000, 4567125.000)


Or do I need to project these first and then offset the results. If this 
is the case, how does one calculate the cellsize of a pixel before doing 
the gdal_warp?
