<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div><div><div><div>Hi List,<br><br></div> I have a geoid in AAIGRID-format, with the following header:<br><br>ncols 1001
<br>nrows 731
<br>xllcenter 400000.0
<br>yllcenter 6045000.0

It is my understanding, that GDAL (GetGeoTransform) always uses the xulcorner, yulcorner (pixel) interpretation. However, I was suprised to see that after a <br><br>gdal_translate dkgeoid13b.utm32 hello.tif, I get:<br><br>>gdalinfo hello.tif<br>Driver: GTiff/GeoTIFF<br>Files: hej.tif<br>Size is 1001, 731<br>Coordinate System is `'<br>Origin = (400000.000000000000000,6410000.000000000000000)<br>Pixel Size = (500.000000000000000,-500.000000000000000)<br>Image Structure Metadata:<br> INTERLEAVE=BAND<br>Corner Coordinates:<br>Upper Left ( 400000.000, 6410000.000) <br>Lower Left ( 400000.000, 6044500.000) <br>Upper Right ( 900500.000, 6410000.000) <br>Lower Right ( 900500.000, 6044500.000) <br>Center ( 650250.000, 6227250.000) <br>Band 1 Block=1001x2 Type=Float32, ColorInterp=Gray<br> NoData Value=99<br></div><br>The GeoTransform is not shifted half a pixel, and is not the same as the AAIGRID i ran gdal_translate on?? So, I would have to interpret now the GeoTransform as xulcenter and yulcenter. This came as a suprise, and led to some bugs in our processing software.<br><br></div>Is this to be expected??<br><br></div>Cheers,<br></div>Simon Kokkendorff<br><div><div><div> <br><div> <br></div></div></div></div></div>
