Hi,
First of all – are You using JPG or PNG format images. Your text is a
bit confusing.
JPG images are associated with JGW or WLD _world_ _format_ files.
XML can contain anything. Provide example.
Good luck,

Hello,
Our team is currently working on a project to reconstruct the railways
of Canada using QGIS. To do this, we collect data directly on the rails,
taking a photo every 2 meters. Each image (JPG) is accompanied by an XML
file containing its GPS coordinates (EPSG:4326) and orientation.
Our goal is to display all the images on a QGIS map at their correct
geographic location and with the proper orientation. (Example image:
/Try.jpg/)
As far as I understand, a JPG file needs either an associated PGW world
file or must be converted into a georeferenced TIFF in order to be
correctly placed on the map.
Here are the challenges we're facing:
* *PGW method*: I tried placing a PNG file with a PGW of the same name
in the same directory, but QGIS seems to ignore the PGW file and
creates HTML document with other coordinates instead.
* *GeoTIFF method*: With over 500,000 images, manually georeferencing
each one is not feasible.
So I would like to ask for your advice:
* Are we on the right track with our approach?
* Which method would you recommend in our case?
* Do you know of any way to automate the image placement and
orientation based on our XML data?
* Would it be possible to handle this through the Python console or
using PyQGIS?
Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your time and help!
