I might try this..is it the good way to do what I need?

1- Use gdal_polygonize.py to create a boundary (excluding pixels with no 
value) of each image and save the boundary as a .shp
2- Somehow find the intersected region of the 2 polygons (boundaries) 
created above and save the result to .shp
3- Use gdal_rasterize on one of the original image  to burn a nodata value 
based on the polygon representing the intersection area

I didn't try yet because I don't have gdal_polygonize.py
My installation is from MS4W and this script is not there. I just install 
GDAL with OSGEO4w and it seems that this script doesn't exist.

If the method above is valid, 
- how can I create a boundary excluding pixels with nodata?
- And, of course, where can I get  gdal_polygonize.py

Thanks!
Steve

Objet
clip intersected 







Hi,
I have 2 Erdas (.img) images that overlap. See attached image.
I need to clip one of the 2 images by removing the intersected (dark red) 
part. 
If it's possible, how should I accomplish this?

thanks for your help,
Steve
