Hi, Not entirely a GRASS question but I'm hoping someone can point me to the right direction
I was given thousands (literally!) of topo images in either jpg or bmp. My task is to create an indexed raster for viewing in either GRASS or QGIS via WMS. The problem: all files do not have a world file! Each topo is subsetted to 6 images (probably due to scanning limitations). There is also a dwg file for each image showing the image frame among other layers. The dwg file is referenced to a lon-lat. My plan is to get the coordinates of the image frame from the dwg file, this provides a reference bounding box for the images. Then automatically create a worldfile for each image subset. I'm thinking of using a bash script with gdal, imagemagick. I also found something similar in producing a world file here: http://hackmap.blogspot.com/2008/04/numpy-to-tiff-via-gdal.html Any ideas/pointers on how to solve this? cheers, maning -- |---------|----------------------------------------------------------| | __.-._ |"Ohhh.
