i.ortho.transform
Computes a coordinate transformation based on the control points.
i.ortho.transform [-srxp] group=name [format=string [,string,...]] [coords=name] [--verbose] [--quiet] [--qq] [--ui]
Example:
i.ortho.transform group=name
grass.script.run_command("i.ortho.transform", group, format="fd,rd", coords=None, flags=None, verbose=None, quiet=None, superquiet=None)
Example:
gs.run_command("i.ortho.transform", group="name")
grass.tools.Tools.i_ortho_transform(group, format="fd,rd", coords=None, flags=None, verbose=None, quiet=None, superquiet=None)

DESCRIPTION
i.ortho.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 z" 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
Ortho-transformation is a 2-step transformation. First, source coordinates are transformed to sensor coordinates, then sensor coordinates are transformed to target coordinates.
