DESCRIPTION

       m.transform is an utility to compute transformation  based  upon  GCPs  and  output  error
       measurements.

       If  coordinates are given with the input file option or fed from stdin, both the input and
       the output format is "x y" with  one  coordinate  pair  per  line.  Reverse  transform  is
       performed with the -r flag.

       The format option determines how control points are printed out.  A summary on the control
       points can be printed with the -s flag.  The summary includes maximum  deviation  observed
       when  transforming GCPs and overall RMS. The format option is ignored when coordinates are
       given with the input file option.

NOTES

       The transformations are:

       order=1:
           e = [E0 E1][1].[1]
               [E2  0][e] [n]
           n = [N0 N1][1].[1]
               [N2  0][e] [n]
       order=2:
           e = [E0 E1 E3][1 ] [1 ]
               [E2 E4  0][e ].[n ]
               [E5  0  0][e²] [n²]
           n = [N0 N1 N3][1 ] [1 ]
               [N2 N4  0][e ].[n ]
               [N5  0  0][e²] [n²]
       order=3:
           e = [E0 E1 E3 E6][1 ] [1 ]
               [E2 E4 E7  0][e ].[n ]
               [E5 E8  0  0][e²] [n²]
               [E9  0  0  0][e³] [n³]
           n = [N0 N1 N3 N6][1 ] [1 ]
               [N2 N4 N7  0][e ].[n ]
               [N5 N8  0  0][e²] [n²]
               [N9  0  0  0][e³] [n³]
       ["." = dot-product, (AE).N = N’EA.]

       In other words, order=1 and order=2 are equivalent to order=3 with the higher coefficients
       equal to zero.
