Comment (by hamish):
Replying to [comment:4 cmbarton]:
> Well, when I use exactly 6 GCP's the RMS values returned by g.transform
are 0,
IIUC that is RMS *error* value is 0, not results. By specifying the
minumum number of points have you just fit a perfect surface to the
points, and so no error?
or is the actual fit bad?
you can interactively play with this with i.vpoints's analyse tool if you
like.
ISTR in photogrametry the standard fiducial marks needed are like:
{{{
+ +
+ +
+ +
}}}
which compensates for rotation, scale, skew, and lens fisheye.
(if that translates to this task geometrically..?)

what is the error i.rectify gives?
> If I use 7 GCP's, I get real values from g.transform and i.rectify
works.
... but what if 0 rms error is real?
> So at present, in terms of how this functions, the i.rectify man page is

Or consider the case that the error is not with i.rectify at all.
(sorry, I haven't tried the test data yet)
