[gdal-dev] including GCP file for gdal_translate

[Chaitanya kumar CH]

Narmadha,

gdal_translate cannot 'stack' multiple images into one. One way is to use
gdal_merge.py with the -seperate option to create a single tif file and then
use gdal_translate to intorduce the projection with the GCPs.
To make it easy to mention the GCPs to gdal_translate you could use
--optfile (refer http://www.gdal.org/gdal_utilities.html) to edit the GCP
file into the required format ( [-gcp pixel line easting northing
[elevation]]* ).
