I imported GeoTiff in to arcgis but Geotiff is in the wrong place.No Geotiff's coordinates but xml file exists.How can I use XML to make the coordinate in the right place?

What are the extents of the geotiff? do the coordinates look like they are in decimal degrees?

perhaps you need to

It sounds as though you have managed to view the GeoTIFF into the Map View/Data Frame but it is in the wrong place. Have you confirmed that the Coordinate Reference System used is correct/as assumed?

What's in the XML file?

No coordinates and projection in Tiif.I think it should be used with xml.

Tiffs have to be where I show them but it comes to a different place.I think this might be related to xml

right-click on the layer in the table of contents,

select Properties and find the extent values... they will be there

Based on its position compared to where it should be, the extents will either be in latitude-longitude values or raw pixel values (like 0 - 1000). In the first case, you can define the coordinate system (projection) to a geographic coordinate system. In the second case, you'll have to georeference it.

I suspect the latter... but the extents will reveal all
