Re: [R-sig-Geo] Georerferncing in Arc vs rgdal (and raster): AREA_OR_POINT=Point

And I was wrong to think that Arc corrected incorrectly. I now think they got it right. I have the same correction in raster 1.6-20; with a warning, partly to remember to turn this correction off again when it is fixed in gdal. Best, Robert On Tue, Nov 16, 2010 at 2:26 AM, Roger Bivand
