<p class=MsoNormal>Good Day List!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>We are working on a project that involves cross-referencing
gcp chips between two satalite images. The chip is a small image
extracted in such a way that the GCP is located at the center, usually a few
pixels in size. We have two images as input, a raw (unprocessed) image,
and an orthorectified image of the same area. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><br>
What I need to do now, is to project the chip found on the orthorectified
image, so that it resembles the area on the raw image in order to do cross referencing.
Originally, I considered using the Ossim library for this purpose, but recently
had to change to using GDAL for the projections. I am not familiar with
the GDAL library at all, and I’m finding it difficult to identify exactly
what classes I need to be looking at. <br>
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>It is important to note that we do not have the projection
information when running the program, we need to determine the required information
from the metadata of the image.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Could someone please guide me in the right direction, or perhaps
explain to me how I would go about this process?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I am fairly new with this line of work, so I apologize for
any inconvenience caused.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Thank you for your time and efforts!<o:p></o:p></p>
