I've read through a few threads and tried copying the geotiff exif data from a known good file to one with an incorrect projection.

I used the following command:

exiftool -tagsfromfile SC_02_correctEPSG.tif  -GeoTiffDirectory -GeoTiffDoubleParams -GeoTiffAsciiParams SC_02.tif

that I found in a thread in this forum:

https://exiftool.org/forum/index.php?topic=10685.msg56716#msg56716

The problem is that exif happily reads the updated file and shows me exactly what I want to see... but if I open up SC_02.tif in a hex editor or GlobalMapper, it appears that the exif data is corrupted.

Here's the exif data from the original SC_02.tif:

Try looking at the exiftool -htmldump output in a web browser instead of using the hex editor:

exiftool -htmldump FILE > out.html

It looks fine in html... but GlobalMapper is not recognizing the projection data... Any idea why that might be? Also, the projection info went from the end of the file to near the beginning...

Could you email me SC_02_correctEPSG.tif so I can try this myself?  philharvey66 at gmail.com

Right, it looks fine in the exif output. I'm not sure what's happening, but GlobalMapper can open the SC_02_correctEPSG.tiff and knows where in the world that data is, but when it opens SC_02.tiff after copying the metadata to it from SC_02_correctEPSG.tiff, it no longer can identify where the data should be. Is it possibly because there's a size mismatch between the two projection strings? Is that perhaps causing some sort of corruption?

I don't know why GlobalMapper has problems with the ExifTool-copied file, but as far as I can tell
GeoTiff information looks good.  However, there are a few values in SC_02_correctEPSG.tiff that aren't valid according to the GeoTiff specification that ExifTool follows (the Unknown values).

I also just noticed that it's copying the coordinates of the four corners... That is a problem. Essentially, I just need to get the correct projection from SC_02_correctEPSG.tif and put it into SC_02.tif without changing anything else.

OK.  There is another difference that your output revealed:

Your SC_02.tif_original has the wrong EXIF format type for these tags (undef instead of double, etc):

Code Select
> exiftool SC_02.tif_original -validate -warning
Validate                        : 5 Warnings
Warning                         : Non-standard format (undef) for IFD0 0x87af GeoTiffDirectory
Warning                         : Non-standard format (undef) for IFD0 0x87b0 GeoTiffDoubleParams
Warning                         : Missing required TIFF IFD0 tag 0x011a XResolution
Warning                         : Missing required TIFF IFD0 tag 0x011b YResolution
Warning                         : Missing required TIFF IFD0 tag 0x0128 ResolutionUnit

When you use ExifTool to copy to this file, the format isn't changed, so it remains incorrect.  But if you first delete the geotiff tags before copying them, like this:

exiftool -GeoTiffDirectory= -GeoTiffDoubleParams= -GeoTiffAsciiParams= SC_02.tif

the formats will be set correctly when the tags are subsequently copied using ExifTool.

Great! Is there a commandline argument to tell exiftool to not copy the corner coordinates? Or to extract those coordinates and put them back in after the copy?

Phil Harvey

March 04, 2020, 01:20:22 PM
Ah.  Those are determined by the PixelScale, ModelTiePoint and ModelTransform tags, which you weren't copying.

I'm still not able to get what I need...

Is there a way to extract the projection information in ascii format, modify it to suit my needs, and re-inject it back into the tif file?

Also, can exiftool read projection information in from an ascii file created by listgeo?

And does this error message from geotifcp mean anything to you?

Yes.  Just read/write those tags normally. ie)

exiftool -pixelscale="0.0128746620000136 0.0120559770000436 1" -modeltiepoint="0 0 0 531697.611622669 4269956.09045799 0" FILE

QuoteAlso, can exiftool read projection information in from an ascii file created by listgeo?

Only if it is in a supported format (ie. json or xml)

Yes.  See my post starting with "OK.  There is another difference that your output revealed:".

I think I misunderstood something.

Was I supposed to delete the geotiff tags from the file that I was fixing or the one that was more or less correct?

so, I ran the command that you gave me to delete the tags, but I'm still getting the same errors...

I apologize for being a pest, but I need to get this data fixed as soon as possible.

You were meant to delete the tags from the target file before copying.

You can use this command to see if the tags have the wrong format type:

exiftool -validate -warning -a FILE

But we still don't know if this is why GlobalMapper isn't recognizing the GeoTiff information.  Are you also setting the PixelScale and ModelTiePoint tags properly?

That's a good question, and not one I can really answer. The image files in question were generated by Chesapeake Technology SonarWiz... well, the ones that needed to be fixed were. I believe the one that I have with the correct projection information was generated by Blue Marble GlobalMapper.  I believe that file was pulled into GlobalMapper and re-exported with the correct projection information.

Deleting the tags from the target file didn't seem to do anything. When I copied the geo information from the good file, it ended up with the same results as before.

I'll run the validation right now. The first file "SC_04.tif" is after copying the geo data from SC_02_correctEPSG. The second file is SC_02_correctEPSG.tif.

One obvious problem here... What version of ExifTool are you using?  You should update to the current version (11.90)

- Phil

Edit: Hmmm.  The output in your first post is from 11.90, but the output in your last post is from a much older version

I appear to be running 10.8... I'll download the source and compile 11.9.

It looks like the Ubuntu repository version is 10.8? Anyway, here's updated output.

Right, Wow, that's old.

OK, so now you have to repeat all your tests writing the GeoTiff tags using the current version.  That old version may not have been writing things correctly.

YAY!!!! So the whole problem was that I was using an outdated version of exiftool? Because I reran all the same commands and everything looks perfect! 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)

Yes, that was likely the whole problem.  I do remember some fixes involving writing GeoTiff information, but that was a long while back and I can't recall the details.
