Hello, List!

I'm wonder if there is some tool to unregister GeoTIFF. Want to drop all georeference tags and use tfw instead. Is it possible?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions

Gennady,

If you use the libtiff "tiffcp" utility, I believe all the geotiff tags will be omitted in the newly generated file. You would need to create the world file manually.

Alternatively, you could use gdal_translate like:

gdal_translate -co TFW=YES -co PROFILE=BASELINE src.tif dst.tif

This will create a plain tiff file with no geotiff tags, and will also create the world file.

Best regards,
