Calibrate, georeference, merge, and mosaic scanned maps

Georeferencing

Georeference/Calibrate map scans and aerial photographs accurately to correct positions, coordinates and projections. VP solutions offers thousands of coordinate systems as provided by the EPSG database. Use program guided "rubber sheeting" functions along single reference points or on grids. Restore exact positioning and scaling. Then export images and placing information to GeoTIFF or in a TIF/TFW file set.

Merging

softelec software provides easy-to-use functions to merge two or more raster maps (or drawings) with highest accuracy into one image file - even when they come in different orientations or scales. Intuitive program guidance secures exact positioning of merge points. A "Smart stitching" option allows for a suppression of overlaps.

Mosaicing

Large raster images can be split or "tiled" into an individual number of convenient small image files for a mosaic of your scnned drawings. Use these functions whenever you need to publish parts of map scans for a fast display on selected regions of interest. Original geo-positioning will be kept for all generated tiles. You may even use individual image size and overlap settings in automated scripts for splitting scans in batch mode.
