\typedef int GDALTransformerFunc

Generic signature for spatial point transformers.

This function signature is used for a variety of functions that accept 
passed in functions used to transform point locations between two coordinate
spaces.  

The GDALCreateGenImgProjTransformer(), GDALCreateReprojectionTransformer(), 
GDALCreateGCPTransformer() and GDALCreateApproxTransformer() functions can
be used to prepare argument data for some built-in transformers.  As well,
applications can implement their own transformers to the following signature.

\code
typedef int 
(*GDALTransformerFunc)( void *pTransformerArg, 
                        int bDstToSrc, int nPointCount, 
                        double *x, double *y, double *z, int *panSuccess );
\endcode

@param pTransformerArg application supplied callback data used by the
transformer.  

@param bDstToSrc if TRUE the transformation will be from the destination
coordinate space to the source coordinate system, otherwise the transformation
will be from the source coordinate system to the destination coordinate system.

@param nPointCount number of points in the x, y and z arrays.

@param x input X coordinates.  Results returned in same array.

@param y input Y coordinates.  Results returned in same array.

@param z input Z coordinates.  Results returned in same array.

@param panSuccess array of ints in which success (TRUE) or failure (FALSE)
flags are returned for the translation of each point.

@return TRUE if the overall transformation succeeds (though some individual
points may have failed) or FALSE if the overall transformation fails.

/**
 * Suggest output file size.
 *
 * This function is used to suggest the size, and georeferenced extents
 * appropriate given the indicated transformation and input file.  It walks
 * the edges of the input file (approximately 20 sample points along each
 * edge) transforming into output coordinates in order to get an extents box.
 *
 * Then a resolution is computed with the intent that the length of the
 * distance from the top left corner of the output imagery to the bottom right
 * corner would represent the same number of pixels as in the source image. 
 * Note that if the image is somewhat rotated the diagonal taken isnt of the
 * whole output bounding rectangle, but instead of the locations where the
 * top/left and bottom/right corners transform.  The output pixel size is 
 * always square.  This is intended to approximately preserve the resolution
 * of the input data in the output file. 
 * 
 * The values returned in padfGeoTransformOut, pnPixels and pnLines are
 * the suggested number of pixels and lines for the output file, and the
 * geotransform relating those pixels to the output georeferenced coordinates.
 *
 * The trickiest part of using the function is ensuring that the 
 * transformer created is from source file pixel/line coordinates to 
 * output file georeferenced coordinates.  This can be accomplished with 
 * GDALCreateGenImgProjTransformer() by passing a NULL for the hDstDS.  
 *
 * @param hSrcDS the input image (it is assumed the whole input images is
 * being transformed). 
 * @param pfnTransformer the transformer function.
 * @param pTransformArg the callback data for the transformer function.
 * @param padfGeoTransformOut the array of six doubles in which the suggested
 * geotransform is returned. 
 * @param pnPixels int in which the suggest pixel width of output is returned.
 * @param pnLines int in which the suggest pixel height of output is returned.
 *
 * @return CE_None if successful or CE_Failure otherwise.

/**
 * Create image to image transformer.
 *
 * This function creates a transformation object that maps from pixel/line
 * coordinates on one image to pixel/line coordinates on another image.  The
 * images may potentially be georeferenced in different coordinate systems, 
 * and may used GCPs to map between their pixel/line coordinates and 
 * georeferenced coordinates (as opposed to the default assumption that their
 * geotransform should be used). 
 *
 * This transformer potentially performs three concatenated transformations.
 *
 * The first stage is from source image pixel/line coordinates to source
 * image georeferenced coordinates, and may be done using the geotransform, 
 * or if not defined using a polynomial model derived from GCPs.  If GCPs
 * are used this stage is accomplished using GDALGCPTransform(). 
 *
 * The second stage is to change projections from the source coordinate system
 * to the destination coordinate system, assuming they differ.  This is 
 * accomplished internally using GDALReprojectionTransform().
 *
 * The third stage is converting from destination image georeferenced
 * coordinates to destination image coordinates.  This is done using the
 * destination image geotransform, or if not available, using a polynomial 
 * model derived from GCPs. If GCPs are used this stage is accomplished using 
 * GDALGCPTransform().  This stage is skipped if hDstDS is NULL when the
 * transformation is created. 
 * 
 * @param hSrcDS source dataset, or NULL.
 * @param pszSrcWKT the coordinate system for the source dataset.  If NULL, 
 * it will be read from the dataset itself. 
 * @param hDstDS destination dataset (or NULL). 
 * @param pszDstWKT the coordinate system for the destination dataset.  If
 * NULL, and hDstDS not NULL, it will be read from the destination dataset.
 * @param bGCPUseOK TRUE if GCPs should be used if the geotransform is not
 * available on the source dataset (not destination).
 * @param dfGCPErrorThreshold ignored/deprecated.
 * @param nOrder the maximum order to use for GCP derived polynomials if 
 * possible.  Use 0 to autoselect, or -1 for thin plate splines.
 * 
 * @return handle suitable for use GDALGenImgProjTransform(), and to be
 * deallocated with GDALDestroyGenImgProjTransformer().

 * Create image to image transformer.
 *
 * This function creates a transformation object that maps from pixel/line
 * coordinates on one image to pixel/line coordinates on another image.  The
 * images may potentially be georeferenced in different coordinate systems, 
 * and may used GCPs to map between their pixel/line coordinates and 
 * georeferenced coordinates (as opposed to the default assumption that their
 * geotransform should be used). 
 *
 * This transformer potentially performs three concatenated transformations.
 *
 * The first stage is from source image pixel/line coordinates to source
 * image georeferenced coordinates, and may be done using the geotransform, 
 * or if not defined using a polynomial model derived from GCPs.  If GCPs
 * are used this stage is accomplished using GDALGCPTransform(). 
 *
 * The second stage is to change projections from the source coordinate system
 * to the destination coordinate system, assuming they differ.  This is 
 * accomplished internally using GDALReprojectionTransform().
 *
 * The third stage is converting from destination image georeferenced
 * coordinates to destination image coordinates.  This is done using the
 * destination image geotransform, or if not available, using a polynomial 
 * model derived from GCPs. If GCPs are used this stage is accomplished using 
 * GDALGCPTransform().  This stage is skipped if hDstDS is NULL when the
 * transformation is created. 
 *
 * Supported Options:
 * <ul>
 * <li> SRC_SRS: WKT SRS to be used as an override for hSrcDS.
 * <li> DST_SRS: WKT SRS to be used as an override for hDstDS.
 * <li> GCPS_OK: If false, GCPs will not be used, default is TRUE. 
 * <li> REFINE_MINIMUM_GCPS: The minimum amount of GCPs that should be available after the refinement.
 * <li> REFINE_TOLERANCE: The tolernace that specifies when a GCP will be eliminated.
 * <li> MAX_GCP_ORDER: the maximum order to use for GCP derived polynomials if
 * possible.  The default is to autoselect based on the number of GCPs.  
 * A value of -1 triggers use of Thin Plate Spline instead of polynomials.
 * <li> METHOD: may have a value which is one of GEOTRANSFORM, GCP_POLYNOMIAL,
 * GCP_TPS, GEOLOC_ARRAY, RPC to force only one geolocation method to be
 * considered on the source dataset. 
 * <li> RPC_HEIGHT: A fixed height to be used with RPC calculations.
 * <li> RPC_DEM: The name of a DEM file to be used with RPC calculations.
 * <li> INSERT_CENTER_LONG: May be set to FALSE to disable setting up a 
 * CENTER_LONG value on the coordinate system to rewrap things around the
 * center of the image.  
 * </ul>
 * 
 * @param hSrcDS source dataset, or NULL.
 * @param hDstDS destination dataset (or NULL).
 * @param papszOptions NULL-terminated list of string options (or NULL).
