Ozy,
You can't set the RPC parameters this way as they are not contained in
the main file header or imagery header, but they are derived from the
RPC00A or RPC00B TRE. So you could set them by using the
TRE=RPC00A=xxxxxx or TRE=RPC00B=xxxxxxxx creation options. You can get
the xxxxxx value from src_ds->GetMetataItem("RPC00A", "TRE") (or
"RPC00B" depending on your NITF source file)
Folks,
I need to create a new NITF image and set some RPC parameters I
grabbed from another NITF file. According to the online documentation
(http://www.gdal.org/frmt_nitf.html):
"Most file header, imagery header metadata and security fields can be
set with appropriate *creation options* (although they are reported as
metadata item, but must not be set as metadata)."
So I did the following:
1 char **create_options = NULL;
2 GDALDataset* ds = (GDALDataset*) GDALOpen( existing_nitf_file,
GA_ReadOnly );
3 create_options = CSLSetNameValue( create_options, "RPC_LINE_OFF",
ds->GetMetadataItem( "LINE_OFF", "RPC" ) );
4 GDALDriver *driver = GetGDALDriverManager()->GetDriverByName("NITF");
5 GDALDataset* out_ds= driver->Create( new_nitf_file, width,
height, bandCount(), GDT_UInt16, create_options );
During execution, I am getting the following warning message:
Warning 6: Driver NITF does not support RPC_LINE_OFF creation option
I also tried using "LINE_OFF" in line 2 as the metadata key and still
getting the same warning.
When I processed the newly created nitf file, calling
GetMetadataItem("RPC_LINE_OFF",NULL) or GetMedataItem("LINE_OFF",
"RPC") returns NULL. So the metadata was not set.
Did I misunderstood the documentation above that talks about setting
imagery header metadata via create options?
I use GDAL v.1.6.3.
Thanks
Ozy
