Hi Daniel,

ogr2ogr is used for the projection / inverse projection of vector data. From 
your message it sounds like you needs to perform projection / inverse 
projection on raster data. If this is the case you will want to use the 
program gdalwarp . Can you post some examples of what you are specifically 
trying to do ?

Cheers,

Dylan
