Georeference Mapping Resources using Ground Control Points
Prerequisites :
- The source data should be imported into a mapping resource with the same CRS as the reference data
- Example: Ground Control Points (.ovf file) should be prepared in the same CRS as the mapping resource
Step by step
- Open the pre-prepared Mapping Resource
- Open the pre-prepared Ground Control Points
- Under Preferences > 3D Hover and Measurements> Set Measure technique to “Point Cloud Closest Point”
- Extensions > Ground control points > add the Ground Control Points
- Resources Catalog > select the opened mapping resource > right click and choose “Georeference Resource”
- Under Georeference tool > Reference Points > click each reference point in the “Georeference Point cloud Tab” using “Measure New Resource”; the measures are based on your already imported Ground Control Points
- Choose a Method transformation > optimal/recommended “Orthonormal XY”
- Save the transformation. A new textfile with the georeference details will be created and saved under the same path as the location .omr file “xxxxx.georeference.oxml”. Deleting this file will delete the georeference.
- Under Manage > Consolidation > Create a new georeferenced mapping resource based on the saved coordinate transformation.
