image mosaicing basics

This will resolve issues with GDAL on OS X in your virtualenv:

brew install gdal
From OUTSIDE a virtualenv (try, deactivate), run this command to find your system site-packages directory: python -c "from distutils.sysconfig import get_python_lib; print(get_python_lib())"
- Chances are this will be /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages
- Note: this is where pip install ... packages are placed
Copy the gdal-XXX.pth file to the site-packages directory of your virtual environment.
Find your site packages directory for your virtual env by running the earlier command, python -c "from distutils.sysconfig import get_python_lib; print(get_python_lib())", from inside an activated virtualenv.

Get gdal development libraries:

$ sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntugis/ubuntugis-unstable
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install libgdal-dev
