All,
I have a series of MrSID images and none of them have any spatial
information in the header. I know that this is common for older
versions of the MrSID format and there are ways to get around this. I
have seen a very common way of doing this in ArcCatalog by "applying"
the projection in an XML file. I have one such XML file that
references the ArcGIS 9.2 XML schema and the projection in this case
is referenced in the WKT tags. When I run Gdalinfo on the file, it
recognizes that there is an XML file that goes with the .sid but
apparently does not recognize the ESRI Schema.

Can anyone lend some advise on how to get GDAL to read the projection
info in these XML files?
Thanks,
