converting map projections in IDL and ENVI [message #41562] Wed, 17 November 2004 09:22 Go to next message

Dear forum users,
I want to convert the projection of georeferenced images whereby I specify
the coordinates of the upper left pixel in the resulting image (so the
pixel exactly match other georefenced images I have). The ENVI GUI
convert map projection function allows for this. However I need to use
IDL commands. Unfortunately, the envi_convert_file_map_projection doesn't
allow me to specify the coordinates of the upper left pixel in the result
image, as far I can tell. Any suggestions for doing it anyway?

Thank you in advance,
Pieter Beck

There is no need to specify the upper-left pixel coordinates in the
projection conversion process. Only when you import a registered image
and the map infomation is not read successfully, you should specify the
projection and map information manually.

Hello,

There are a number of map projection routines in IDL, but it is not clear to me
how they could help you out. It would be helpful if you spell out...

What the coordinates of the pixel are in ... lon lat ?

What is the destination coordinate?

Perhaps you could give some example data for the coordinates.

Ben
