Processing SICD files from G-EGD #457
Comments
Hey there, First and foremost, I completely understand where you're coming from. Handling SICD files and ensuring accurate georeferencing can be quite intricate. SarPy, as a potent Python library, is specifically tailored for such operations, and it's great that you're leveraging it. From a technical standpoint, SarPy provides robust methods for orthorectifying SICD formatted files. However, a few nuances might be affecting the alignment with Google Earth: 1 - Coordinate System Alignment: One of the primary considerations is ensuring that the coordinate system or datum of the SICD files matches that of Google Earth, which typically operates on the WGS-84 system. Any misalignment between the two can lead to discrepancies in the final output. Given these insights, here's what I'd suggest:
Best of luck, and hope this helps! |
Are you using create_kmz to check for alignment in Google Earth? That is the most direct way to check whether the SICD is being projected correctly or not. |
Our group would like to process the SICD formatted files that are provided on the G-EGD platform into a georeferenced, orthorectified product. Is there a straightforward way to do this using SarPy? I can open the SICD files and view them. However, when I orthorectify a SICD file using the ortho helper, the resulting image does not align to Google Earth. What am I doing wrong?
