[gdal-dev] RPC transform

Yehiyam,

For that kind of issue my advise is to run in debugging mode. The GDAL 
transformation engine must have an internal pixel geolocation defined. 
It is probably CENTER of the pixel, as in AREA. I am not sure. In that 
case the returning pixel/line refers to AREA and you might need to do 
the adjustment. But again, I would debug it to make sure. We have 
instructions on how to debug GDAL using VS and NetBeans on wiki. I just 
can't find it. I can't find anything about the RPC_DEM either. Where did 
you get it?

Regards,

Ivan
