Hi everyone!

I've struggled with raster calibration for a long time now and I'm curious what kind of software do you use to do it in your countries? I tried AutoCAD, Microstation and ArcGIS and to be honest I didn't fell in love with any of these programs. Maybe you know some trics how to make it easier?

Also, in Poland, where I'm from, we have to calibrate a lot of raster maps because there aren't a lot digital maps yet. How about your countries? Do you have to calibrate a lot or are there mostly digital maps already?

I have used the first one linked below to rubber sheet google earth images to my surveys.

The 2nd one, I believe is the mac os version of the first.

I'm using QGIS for georeferencing and then I can bring it into Carlson using the geotiff command. I can export from Carlson to google earth and bring that into QGIS if I'm working with survey data or just use the assessor data

We lay local photos, such as county wide orthos that were flown for local mapping projects. These orthos tend to be much higher quality than the available satellite photos. However, they get older and aren't updated as often as the satellite photos.?ÿ

So we do both and bring them in using whatever native projection they are referenced too, then they are moved to our projection. Many of them will come into Autocad in state plane, then it's simply a scale factor shift to "bring them up" to the project projection. Same with Quads. Usually I will use Lizardtech to create a cut out of an area I want.?ÿ
