<div>That worldfile-to-worldfile tool would be useful to me too.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>Then I got another use case: Google Earth (GE) allows to georeference raster images as GroundOverlays for free. GE exports the &#39;metadata&#39; as KML. What about a converter that takes this KML (or it&#39;s parameters from command line) and generates a world file according to -t_srs option?</div>

<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>Here&#39;s such a GroundOverlay-KML (<font face="Courier New">LatLonBox and AFAIK <font face="Courier New">viewBoundScale are required as input</font></font>):</div>
