Universal Image Geometry Model Transformation (simplified) This operation method implements the universal image geometry model that transforms ground coordinates into georeferenced image coordinates. This image geometry model uses one ratio of two polynomial functions to compute the row image coordinate, and uses a similar ratio of two different polynomials to compute the column image coordinate. All four polynomials are functions of three ground coordinates: two horizontal coordinates and one vertical coordinate. In the polynomial functions, the three ground coordinates and two image coordinates are each offset and scaled to have a range from -1.0 to +1.0 over an image or image section. For brevity, this simplified operation method specification does not include all geometry model parameters or all optional XML elements.
