Getting the GeoTransform coeficients from a gdal object
- Parameters:
- datasetgdal object from gdal.Open()
- Returns:
- geotransformPython dictionnary
- # ~ A GeoTransform consists in a set of 6 coefficients:
- # ~ GT(0) x-coordinate of the upper-left corner of the upper-left pixel.
- # ~ GT(1) w-e pixel resolution / pixel width.
- # ~ GT(2) row rotation (typically zero).
- # ~ GT(3) y-coordinate of the upper-left corner of the upper-left pixel.
- # ~ GT(4) column rotation (typically zero).
- # ~ GT(5) n-s pixel resolution / pixel height (negative value for a north-up image).
