What is it?
drg2gtm is a simple C-Progam which reads a USGS DRG images and their corresponding worldfiles. The image is inserted into a new GSP Track Maker file and automatically registered.

Why was it developed?
Manually registering DRGs from the USGS and the Microsoft Terraserver was tedious. I wanted a way to do this automatically.

History:
01/15/2001 - Version 1.0 developed.

Usage:
drg2gtm DRGimagefile UTMZONE#
             WGS84|NAD27|NAD83
             [width height]

- reads the DRGimagefile and the matching worldfile and creates  DGRimagefile.gtm
  - DRGimagefile must be a GIF or JPG
  - UTMZONE# the UTM zone that this image is in
  - datum must be WGS84, NAD27 or NAD83
  - jpg images must include a width and height
  - The worldfile must be in worldfile format and be named *.gifw or *.jpgw
