Thanks a lot for taking the time, Even, I got the transformation
from cartesian to projected coordinates to work in memory with the
GTiff driver. With MEM, NUMPY or VRT it does not work because
these formats are either not readable from /vsimem/ or don´t have
a regular file path which is needed to set the <font size="2">X_DATASET
and </font><font size="2">Y_DATASET keys in the GEOLOCATION
metadata</font>.<br>

Ah indeed for X_DATASET/Y_DATASET, you can't use a MEM or NUMPY
dataset. But a /vsimem/xxx dataset in another format should work.<br>

I don´t completely get what you mean here. To me, this sounds
like there might be a way to do the inverted transformation
using the C-API of GDAL. </div>

No, I meant there's some missing code to do that.<br>

I am trying to convert image data from cartesian/image
coordinates to projected coordinates AND vice versa using
geolocation arrays in GDAL. I have two questions:<br>
<ol>
<li>Since this transformation is part of a processing
chain implemented in Python, I try to transform the data
directly in-memory, i.e, without any disk access. This
saves IO time and avoids permission errors when trying
to write temporary data on Windows. How can this be
done? I got correct results with the code below,
however, only when I temporarily write the data to disk.
I tried to write the data to /vsimem/ using the MEM,
GTiff and NUMPY drivers. However, gdal.Warp can´t find
the data there (FileNotFoundError). I think, also the
gdal.Transformer class might be useful and I found an
interesting thread on that <a
href="https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/gdal-dev/2012-January/031502.html"
moz-do-not-send="true">here</a> and a related test in
the GDAL autotest suite (<a
href="https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/blob/master/autotest/alg/transformgeoloc.py"
moz-do-not-send="true">here</a>). However, I can´t get
it to work for my specific case.</li>
</ol>

<p>There's no reason it won't work with a in-memory dataset.</p>
<p>If you use a MEM dataset, then you need to provide the
dataset object itself as the input dataset of gdal.Warp()
(the name of a MEM dataset is completely ignored. a MEM
dataset can't be opened, just created).</p>
<p>Similarly with a NUMPY dataset. With GTiff and /vsimem/,
they behave as a regular file. If you pass it by name as
input of gdal.Warp(), you need to make sure to close (ds =
None typically) the dataset before, so it is properly
flushed and can be opened. But you can also pass it as an
object without that constraint.</p>
<p>You can also create purely in-memory VRT files by assigning
them an empty name. Then of course you need to provide them
as objects to gdal.Warp()<br>

<li>My second question is how I can invert the
transformation, i.e., how can I transform an image with
projected coordinates back to cartesian/image
coordinates, given that a geolocation array tells GDAL
where to put which pixel in the output? Background is a
processing pipeline for satellite data where some
processing steps are running in sensor geometry (image
data as acquired by the sensor, without any geocoding
and projection) and I need to provide corresponding AUX
data which originally come with projected coordinates.<br>
