Thanks, my question is about like:

- using gdal_translate to subset an interested area from the tiff file
in MGRS grid.

- using gdalwarp which I can project a 2D Tiff file in MGRS to EPSG:4326
CRS for example.

Sorry, I don't have any MGRS file yet to understand the data, so I
needed to ask the GDAL mailing list first.
