Hello all

As part of Hao's work on Google Summer of Code, we have a partial
mapping from Landsat to ISO 19115 metadata. The mapping is temporarily
documented here (will be moved to Apache SIS javadoc later):

http://htmlpreview.github.io/?https://raw.githubusercontent.com/desruisseaux/sis/JDK8/storage/sis-geotiff/src/main/java/org/apache/sis/storage/geotiff/doc-files/LandsatMetadata.html

We will complete this mapping progressively. Does anyone has comment?

Note for Hao: we have a slight mismatch between the Landsat and ISO
19115 geographic bounding box. For example the Landsat
CORNER_UL_LAT_PRODUCT is:

    The latitude value for the upper-left corner of the product,
    _*measured at the center of the pixel*_. Positive (+) value
    indicates north latitude; negative (-) value indicates south
    latitude. Units are in degrees.

While ISO 19115 northBoundLatitude is:

    Northern-most coordinate of the _*limit of the resource extent*_
    expressed in latitude in decimal degrees (positive north).

Between the two, there is a difference of 0.5 pixels. It may look small,
but a pixel of a remote sensing image may cover an area of some
kilometres on Earth.
