In this video, you will learn how to use the Georeferencer tool of QGIS to assign the correct geographic information to a scanned topographic map. • Georeferencing is the process of defining the existence of a certain geographic object in physical space by assigning the actual coordinate properties to the object, considering a specific coordinate reference system. • Typically objects like aerial photos or scanners maps, when found in file formats such as JPEG, PNG, do not contain any geospatial properties in them. This means, if you were to drag the image and drop it in a GIS software like QGIS or ArcGIS, it would not be placed where its supposed to be due to the fact that no specific coordinate values have been assigned for any of the pixels of the image. • Therefore, the process of taking a raw image and transforming it into an image which consists of the aforementioned geospatial properties is the core technique that is discussed in this tutorial. As the raw image, a scanned topographic map was used for the purposes of this tutorial as it originally did not contain any coordinate reference properties. • You may also check out the following videos that are related to this tutorial: • 👉 Georeferencing a Scanned Topographic Map using QGIS - • Downloading Topographic Maps using G... • #georeferencing #qgis #geodeltalabs
