Dear Sajid,

checking the source of the plugin I realized that different scales are used in easting and northing direction. So the formulas look like:
E' = Eoffset + Escale * E
N' = Noffset - Nscale * N

The minus in N formula is because of the different axis direction in the screen coordinates and map coordinates.
The four unknowns are calculated from a least squares estimation.

Regards,
Zoltan

Hi Zortan

Thank you for the reply.

Would be great to know, how this Offsets and scale is calculated from a set
of GCP's.
Any idea?

Regards

Sajid

Dear Sajid,

linear transformation (from my practice) use three unknowns
offset (Easting, Northing) and scale. No rotational angle.
The linear is not a good name for it.
E' = Eoffset + scale * E
N' = Noffset + scale * N

 Hi,
Can anyone give me hints on statistical background behind linear
transformation in Georeferencer plugin?

I want to know the formulae used to calculate the residuals while using
linear translation.
Any related paper/material on which it is developed??

Thanks and Regards

Sajid
