Georeferencing of vector and raster layers in GIS – meaning, description and approach

Georeferencing will align different types of geographic information to a known geographic coordinate system. This allow to view the respective information together with another already georeferenced layers of information. The process include shifting, scaling, rotating, rectifying and etc. the data. In other words it provide geographical coordinate systems for all layers.

Step by step approach

1. Coordinate system: Define the coordinate system of already referenced layers;
2. Align the input information to the existing layers with already available geographic coordinate system;
3. Upload the information in the database together with other layers.
