NAME

       gdalmove - gdalmove.py Transform georeferencing of raster file in place

SYNOPSIS

       gdalmove.py [-s_srs <srs_defn>] -t_srs <srs_defn>
                   [-et <max_pixel_err>] target_file

DESCRIPTION

       The gdalmove.py script transforms the bounds of a raster file from one coordinate system to another, and
       then updates the coordinate system and geotransform of the file. This is done without altering pixel
       values at all. It is loosely similar to using gdalwarp to transform an image but avoiding the resampling
       step in order to avoid image damage. It is generally only suitable for transformations that are
       effectively linear in the area of the file.

       If no error threshold value (-et) is provided then the file is not actually updated, but the errors that
       would be incurred are reported. If -et is provided then the file is only modify if the apparent error
       being introduced is less than the indicate threshold (in pixels).

       Currently the transformed geotransform is computed based on the transformation of the top left, top
       right, and bottom left corners. A reduced overall error could be produced using a least squares fit of at
       least all four corner points.

       -s_srs srs_defn:

       Override the coordinate system of the file with the indicated coordinate system definition. Optional. If
       not provided the source coordinate system is read from the source file.

       -t_srs srs_defn:

       Defines the target coordinate system. This coordinate system will be written to the file after an update.

       -et max_pixel_err:

       The error threshold (in pixels) beyond which the file will not be updated. If not provided no update will
       be applied to the file, but errors will be reported.

       target_file
           The file to be operated on. To update this must be a file format that supports in place updates of
           the geotransform and SRS.
