Ok I make progress. What I meant with "gps calibration" is Image
Rectification[1] as you described but I didn't know about this before
:).

Shouldn't be the geo and coordinate information inside the GeoTiff
Image after rectification? So step b) may be skipped?

Your script require an osm file or zoom-12, so I just need a way to
convert a geotiff file to osm, right?
