Hello list !<br><br>I use the gdalwarp tool to change the projection of a GeoTiff file but the most of the metadata of the source file are lost, which is not the case with the gdal_translate tool.<br>Particularly, the following metadata are lost :<br>
TIFFTAG_DOCUMENTNAME<br> TIFFTAG_IMAGEDESCRIPTION<br> TIFFTAG_SOFTWARE<br> TIFFTAG_DATETIME<br> TIFFTAG_ARTIST<br> TIFFTAG_HOSTCOMPUTER<br><br>Do I miss something ?<br><br><br>The command :<br><br>gdalwarp -t_srs EPSG:4326 srcfile.tif outfile.tif<br>
