I have searched and found lots of similar queries but nothing that quite gives me the answer that I am looking for (as they all appear to be related to gdal_translate rather than the C++ API.)
We have a set of strips of grey scale satellite imagery that are rotated. I use AutoCreateWarpedVRT to generate a 'north-up' image that is converted to a bitmap and displayed to the user. When displayed the image has a black area surrounding it which tends to mask other images that tile alongside. >From searching around I assume it is to do with the GDALWarpOptions that can be passed to the AutoCreateWarpedVRT function but the 'no-data' value of the dataset when queried fails and just returns a default of -10000.0. Therefore I am unsure of what to set in the padfDstNoDataReal etc variables to mask out the areas where there is no data. The image is grey scale, the 'non-data' areas come out as black once the image is returned from the RasterIO call so it makes it difficult to post-process the image data. Anybody got any tips on the way to do this and maybe set up the GDALWarpOptions to pass to the AutoCreateWarpedVRT function? Is it even possible on a grey-scale dataset with no 'no-data' value?
