Description

srcY cooordinates are taken as negative once the points file
is read in the plugin, while coordinates are correct
in the points file. probably a wrong interpretation of
the position in the Southern hemisphere
epsg 32719 (wgs84 utm19S)
See georef.jpeg

(also, please keep the same column order and names in
both the plugin and the points file).

History

#1 Updated by alobo - about 11 years ago

The example was not appropriate because the gdal gcp assume image coordinates are
in pixels (col, row) and not in projected coordinates (qgis geoproc tool should
actually extract pixel coordinates in this case but this is a matter of another ticket)

The same problem of negative coordinates is shown in georefpix.jpeg. I also attach the points file.

I've successfully warped the image with those gcp and the following 2 gdal commands (similar to but not identical to the script generated by the plugin):

gdal_translate -of Float32 GTiff -a_srs EPSG:32719 -gcp 291 3075 652000 7.05881e+06 -gcp 386 2965 654768 7.06212e+06 ... "/media/Iomega_HDD/VOLCAN/HYPERION/RHyperion/adlspca10.tif" "/tmp/adlspca10.tif"

(note: deleted gcp in ...)

gdalwarp -ot Float32 -wt Float32 -r bilinear -order 2 -co COMPRESS=NONE -tr 30.000000 -30.000000 "/tmp/adlspca10.tif" "/media/Iomega_HDD/VOLCAN/HYPERION/RHyperion/adlspca10_corrbilin.tif"

Can you describe exactly the steps to reproduce it? I tried to

  • create new project
  • set project projection to 32719
  • open georeferencer plugin
  • load adlspca10.tif.point

but the points are loaded with positive srcY.

Could it be that it only happens when QGIS is run on a computer physically located on southern hemisphere? Have you tried to turn your computer upside down?

if it works on master this can be closed, I guess.
