[gdal-dev] Specify Grid Rotation for gdal.Warp() with Geolocation Arrays

[Brendan Heberlein]

Hi Mike,

regardless of the map projection, it may be desirable to have the grid oriented in one direction or another, e.g. due to the spatial distribution of data points. Although the CRS/SRS designates the coordinate axes, these are not always aligned with the desired grid orientation.

So, basically I want to be able to specify an arbitrary geotransform array for the output grid. This would allow the grid to be assigned an arbitrary orientation within the CRS frame.

Thanks,
Brendan

well, the map projection does this - there are many possibilities. Or, do you have another geolocation array you want as the target?

If you have an example I'm happy to try a few things, but I'd assumed you had a target map projection in mind. What kind of crs to choose depends on your goal, or is purely to not have north up?

Perhaps there's something terminology wise I'm missing ...

Hi Mike,

thanks for the response.

Can you clarify how I would go about specifying the grid orientation for the output raster? None of -te, -ts or -t_srs address this.

that's exactly what the warper does with geolocation arrays, set the target extent, dimension, and crs with -te, -ts, -t_srs with gdalwarp.

python will have those analogous controls for the warper.

Cheers, Mike

Hello,

I would like to be able to warp an image dataset using a geolocation array, while specifying the grid to which the output dataset is sampled. Specifically, I want to be able to warp the dataset to a grid which is not oriented North-up.

Can GDAL support this currently? Or, what is the likelihood this could be supported in the future?

I primarily rely on the Python bindings, so a solution within that framework would be ideal for me.

Thanks!
