[UW-GIS-L] Convert a raster's projection and export the results?

[Harvey Greenberg]

The header of a geotiff file can be dumped to ascii with the utility 
listgeo. See 
http://gis.ess.washington.edu/data/raster/geotiff/listgeo.exe or 
http://www.remotesensing.org/geotiff/geotiff.html
It's a verbose format (17 lines), but it's standard and complete.

And the ascii header can be inserted into a geotiff file with 
http://gis.ess.washington.edu/data/raster/geotiff/geotifcp.exe
