[GRASS-user] Importing a Scanned Map

[kapo coulibaly]

I believe the wld is a world file, all it has is the coordinate but not the
projection infos (not sure about the xml file though). I would suggest you
create a dummy GRASS mapset with the projection your tif file was
georeferenced at, then use r.proj to import it in your intended location.
let me know if I missed the point you were trying to make.
