[Qgis-user] MBTiles have wrong georeferencing

Hi,


I want to georeference a very large SQlite file (MBTiles) and include
it in QGIS3. The tiles can be displayed with QGIS, but the location is
not correct.

What is the best strategy to georeference MBTiles?

According to manual MBTiles does not accept worldfile (wld).
Reference: https://gdal.org/drivers/raster/mbtiles.html

For correct projection scaling and XY shift is enough.

Is it standard to create a Custom Coordinate Reference System (CRS) in
such a case?

Or is GDAL suitable to make a coordinate transformation?

Does anyone know a manual? I am grateful for any hint.


Regards,
Christian Naujoks
