Extracting SPOTView images.

|Question 2:
| Is there anyway one can buy a rectified image and then extract the image
|from the tape into an UTM location ?

(2) If you really want to extract directly into UTM location and have
data already georeferenced you could do one of two things:

(a) extract into an xy location and use unix commands to move all the
data (raster as well as group) into the UTM location;
(b) Remove the I_must_be_imagery_projection() call from the programs
which extract images and this will allow you to put images directly
into whatever location you wish. Be warned that the extraction
utilities (with perhaps the exception of i.tape.other) may not know
about rectified imagery.

Note: you will have to run r.support to create a proper header for the
images

  I have few more questions about directly moving all data from
xy location to xy location. I feel that the first alternative is better.

Q. Would it still have the right zone information etc ?

  I'll try the first alternative and let you know if I have any further questions.

Thankyou for your time,
