Polynomial-Based Geometric Correction with Relief
For the case of older medium-resolution imagery over rugged terrain, it is still interesting being able to apply a simple polynomial model but considering x,y,z coordinates as described in [1]. An important application would be the case of ASTER imagery, which is still very appreciated in Earth Sciences. I tried to use GenerateRPCSensorModel in the past, but the results were very bad (see the end of the discussion in the older list [2]).
Perhaps just letting the user to set denominators to 1 in GenerateRPCSensorModel could be a way?
