AttributeError: 'SpatialReference' object has no attribute 'ImportfromWkt'

Question

I just started using gdal. I'm trying to get longitude and latitudes from pictures. This is what I have so far. This gives me an attribute error. Anyone know how to fix the attribute error?

 from osgeo import osr
 import numpy
 import gdal
 ds = gdal.Open(r"path")
 prj = ds.GetProjectionRef()
 oldcs = osr.SpatialReference()
 oldcs.ImportfromWkt(prj)

Error:

Answer 1

You have a typo. The method is ImportFromWkt() (note the capitalized F).

oldcs.ImportFromWkt(prj)

It is a good idea to use an IDE that offers autocomplete features so you can easily avoid this type of mistakes in the future as well as check all the methods that a specific object can call.
