The UTM coords are not in the expected value range, either. Note I am not using -s_srs as I am expecting that from the TIFF headers. gdalwarp    -t_srs 'epsg:32734'     3319bc23.tif     bc23.tif Notice the UTM zone, Central Meridian and False Northing in the target bc23.tif file. The reason for this problem is that the coordinates embedded in the source tif image are garbage. The image originates from a SID image, that is in Lo19 Gauss using Hartebeeshoek94  (epsg:2048) On export Lizardtech's GeoViewer defaults to LatLong. I was able to get the original SID & SDW files for the image, and noticed that it's contents were Gauss values, so I re-exported the image from GeoViewer, forcing use of the world files, and now everything is hunkey-dorey. Thanks anyway. Kind regards, Zoltan -- =========================================== Zoltan Szecsei Director Geograph (Pty) Ltd. P.O.
