Hi Anton,

just letting you know that adding either or both of those strings still doesn't 
force tps warping via the python bindings.

regarding nansat, i'd like to have a working coastcolour mapper file for future 
projects, unfortunately at this time i can't justify the time given i have a 
working solution now (partly thanks to nansat-learned techniques). 

from what i saw of my initial attempt though it should be achievable next time 
i need to do something similar. for info the data is available here:
http://www.coastcolour.org/data/archive/mediterranean_blacksea/2010/L2R/

.. essentially MERIS L2 data but with certain vars missing/extra which break 
the nansat meris/envisat code.

i'll contact the nansat list when it comes time to make the mapper.

thanks again for your help

Hi Ivan,

if you are using Python, then options are usually given as a list of strings. I 
cannot find in the gdal docs at the moment (docs for python bindings are quite 
scarce), but you can check in Nansat:

https://github.com/nansencenter/nansat/blob/develop/vrt.py#L1641

So for your case it may be ['TPS=True'] or ['METHOD=GCP_TPS']

Regarding Nansat, we can add your mapper in the repository, or I can help a 
little with development of it (if you provide band description and an example 
file). Our mailing list is [email protected]


Regards!
Anton
