World file to corner geotransform and pixel centre: file line order · case 05

Rotated rasters are skewed the wrong way after import.

Case contract

Input [lines, col, row] where lines are the six world-file values in file order A, D, B, E, C, F: A and E are the pixel sizes, D and B the rotation terms, and (C, F) the map coordinate of the centre of the upper-left pixel. Return the corner-based geotransform [C - A/2 - B/2, A, B, F - D/2 - E/2, D, E] followed by the centre of pixel (col, row): C + A*col + B*row and F + D*col + E*row; all rounded to 6 decimals.

Why this case matters

GIS tools interchange world files and corner-origin geotransforms; the half-pixel convention and line order are classic sources of half-pixel and rotated-raster shifts.
