How to reverse the y-axis of the imported image in Tkinter?

Question

For duplicate-markers: I am fully aware that there are some similar questions in matplotlib, such as this one. My question is about

What you seem to be asking for is a 2D World to Viewport Transformation:

Take an area defined in "world coordinates" (say 10 metres by 10 metres) and map it to an area defined in canvas coordinates.

eg.

from tkinter import *

xmin,ymin,xmax,ymax = 0,0,10,10   # world
umin,vmin,umax,vmax = 0,480,640,0 # viewport (note: y reversed)

points = [(2,2), (4,4), (7,7), (8,8)]  # some "world" points

def world_to_viewport(worldpoint):
    x,y = worldpoint
    u = (x - xmin)*((umax - umin)/(xmax - xmin)) + umin
    v = (y - ymin)*((vmax - vmin)/(ymax - ymin)) + vmin
    return u,v

def pixel_to_world(pixel):
    u,v = pixel
    x = (u - umin)*((xmax - xmin)/(umax - umin)) + xmin
    y = (v - vmin)*((ymax - ymin)/(vmax - vmin)) + ymin
    return x,y

root = Tk()
canvas = Canvas(root, width=640, height=480, bd=0, highlightthickness=0)
canvas.pack()

def on_click(event):
    root.title('%s,%s' %(pixel_to_world((event.x,event.y))))

canvas.bind('', on_click)

r = 5
for point in points:
    cx,cy = world_to_viewport(point)
    canvas.create_oval(cx-r,cy-r,cx+r,cy+r,fill='red')

root.mainloop()
