I don't know if QGIS supports this feature out of the box. In the past, I used
MRTSwath to orthorectify MODIS:

OTB and OSSIM are 2 open source libraries that can be used to rectify satellite
images as well.

Subject: [Qgis-user] getting square raster images from MODIS tiff files into
QGIS
Dear QGIS Gurus:
My problem is that, having already created vector layers for a region in
separate sub-windows of QGIS, when I create an additional layer for a raster
image by opening a MODIS TIFF file for the same region, it appears as a
trapezium rather than a rectangle, and when I try to convert it to a rectangle
by specifying the UTM location, the vector images disappear. So I can't show
both the squared raster image and the vector images together.
I emailed a friend who uses other GIS software (including ArcGIS, ERDAS and
IDRISI) and he suggested that I might need a process of rectification for
adjusting the shape and position of the image to the real position instead of
just changing the coordination. If so, does Quantum GIS have a function to do
that?
kind regards....Don
