Hi all,

I'm creating images from SPOT6/7 archive DIMAP format. The resulting images 
display in the correct position in the world when combined with other sources, 
however all the usual tools say the images have no georeferencing.

* If the images have no georeferencing how do ArcMap/Pro and Qgis know to put 
them in the right place?

Those images have RPC. You can see RPC information with gdalinfo in the "RPC Metadata" section

listeo/geotiffcp and a number of utilities are not RPC aware. But gdalwarp is.

* How can I convert whatever-this-is into proper georeferencing so that other 
tools know how to handle them too?
You can use gdalwarp to orthorectify them.  You should generally specify -to RPC_DEM=some_dem_with_elevation_as_ellipsoidal_heights or -to RPC_HEIGHT=ellipsoidal_height. See https://gdal.org/api/gdal_alg.html?highlight=rpc_dem

Attached is a sample image.  It was created with (on one line):

     gdal_translate  -outsize 100 0
     -co compress=zstd -co predictor=yes -co level=17 -co bigtiff=yes -of cog
     .\path\to\IMG_SPOT6_MS_001_A\DIM_SPOT6_MS_201609082010410_SEN_1.XML
     source_tiny.tif

The biggest problem this causes me at the moment is that gdal_pansharpen.py 
output does not have any kind of goereferencing, and I can't use old faithfuls 
like listgeo, geotiffcp, or gdalcopyproj.py to copy the coordinate system 
across.

thanks in advance for your thoughts,
