Do you want to use historical maps in your digital mapping project? Georectifying is the process of “spatializing” scanned maps or aerial imagery so that they can be used in a geographic information system (GIS) for digital mapping. This workshop will cover the basic concepts involved in georeferencing/georectifiying a digital image and provide hands-on practice.
