How to georeference the top down image?

Thanks for the excellent library! I've been working to process some drone images that are intentionally about 40 deg off nadir and transform them to how they'd look top down so I can pull them into a GIS workflow and map them. Is there any way to take the output of cam.getTopViewOfImage() and properly georeference it? I have been trying with rasterio and a few other libraries, but I can't quite swing it. I need either the locations of all four corners of the image or a proper transform to put into rasterio. I feel like the GPS locations of the corners of the top view image should already be within cameratransform somewhere? Is there a good way to access this data? Or a suggested way for mapping that top down image?

You can see my image here as the output of cam.getTopViewOfImage():

Thanks again for the helpful library!
