[gdal-dev] Create a Google Earth overlay based on Geotiff

Greetings

I have a goerreferenced Geotiff image, already in EPSG:4326, and I need
to automatically create an KML with an overlay from this geotiff. Is it
possible using GDAL? If so, how can I do that? Or can anyone indicate me
an Wiki that explain this?
I have found this link:
http://code.google.com/apis/kml/articles/raster.html but it creates
empty doc.kml

Thanks

Antonio

Hi there
It worked (my problem was that I was using gdal_translate instead of
gdalwarp to reproject the images to EPSG:4326).

But now I have 1 little question:
When I do the reprojection of the image from my UTM to EPSG:4326 It
creates a black-NO VALUE area around the image due to projection. In
order to auxiliate the visualization is it possible to turn this no-data
into transparent?
