Thank you for the quick, helpful response. Sounds like I need to dig into the NITF spec to determine how to best use the available precision. Thanks again. From: Even Rouault Sent: Thursday, July 20, 2023 11:45 AM To: Nigus, Steve ; gdal-dev@lists.osgeo.org Subject: Re: [gdal-dev] NITF

NITF base georeferencing using the IGEOLO field sucks because there's not enough decimal digits to compute the full accuracy of a geotransform, and thus when GDAL tries to reconstruct the geotransform from the 4 corners (that's how georeferencing is stored), the threshold to detect if the compu

I am doing a real-time SAR spot simulation where the SAR orbits a target point and saves a series of the georeferenced spot image files. My initial implementation generated non-GDAL GeoTIFF or JPEG files. I use a least-squares algorithm to develop the 6 affine geotransform values. This all wo
