<title>geotifcp - Copy TIFF, Installing GeoTIFF Metadata</title>

<h1>geotifcp - Copy TIFF with updated GeoTIFF Metadata</h1>

<pre>
Syntax:   geotifcp [options] [-e esri_worldfile] [-g metadata] input output
</pre>

The program geotifcp is identical in function to the LIBTIFF program
"tiffcp", with the additional feature that if the "-g <metadata>"
option is used the GeoTIFF information from the file <metadata> 
will be installed into the output file.  The "-e worldfile" option will 
override the tiepoint and scale information from the metadata file based
on the contents of the ESRI worldfile. <p>

If the "-g" option is not used the geotiff information from the source
file is preserved in the new output file.<p>

"geotifcp" inherits all the other file-transformation capabilities
of the tiffcp program; for help on the additional parameters give
the command:<p>
<pre>
  %  geotifcp -h
</pre>

The metadata format is the same as is described in the <a href="listgeo.html">
listgeo</a> program.  Normally metadata files for use with geotifcp are
generated from a similar file with listgeo, and then modified by hand
as required. <p>
