[Gdal-dev] saving GeoTiff

[Roger James]

Ayman,

I you convert the file to to an ordinary tiff, you can use my georef
program to give it co-ordinate information. You will need the
co-ordinates of three ground control points visible in the upper left,
upper right, and lower left quadrants of the image. You can find georef
at www.beardandsandals.co.uk.

Subject: [Gdal-dev] saving GeoTiff

I want to be able to convert a "bmp" file to a
"GeoTiff" file.

I used gdal_translate to do this, but the resulting
file didn't of course contain georeferencing data.

Now:
1. Is it possible (if I find the goereferencing data)
to give them to GDAL SDK so that GDAL can generate a
GeoTiff file with georeferencing data embeded inside?

if (1.)
{
   2. What data do I need to supply to GDAL to    
   accomplish this?
   
   3. What functions to use in GDAL to save such data 
   in thre resulting GeoTiff file?
}
else
{
   4. Can you help me in any means to accomoplish
this?
}
