Georectifying Historical Maps
Event box

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.
Bring a laptop with QGIS installed. Beginner lever understanding of GIS is expected (through the GIS Fundamentals workshop or similar).
