RE: [gdal-dev] NITF Header data

2008-12-17 Thread Dan Greve

I would think it makes sense to return these two fields as metadata, 
specifically IGEOLO, since IGEOLO might not be returned as a geotransform (such 
as in the case when BlockA or other higher precision georeferencing is 
available).

 Christiaan,
 
 The IGEOLO and ICORDS data are not normally returned as NITF specific
 metadata because they are transformed into a generic geotransform and
 coordinate system definition.
 
 If it is particularly useful, they could also be returned in raw form as
 metadata items.
 
 Best regards,

[gdal-dev] NITF Header data

2008-12-16 Thread Christiaan Janssen
Does anyone know if it is possible to access any more of the NITF header data 
than what is currently listed in the GDAL dataset metadata? There are a number 
of fields that I have noticed missing, namely ICORDS  IGEOLO that I could 
really use. I realize that these are image subheader components but it would 
seem to make sense that a GDAL dataset represents a single NITF subimage and 
that it would contain the subimage specific metadata. Any help is greatly 
appreciated, thanks.
