Inserting Geo-Referenced Images
You can use the Insert command on the Map ➤ Image menu to insert
geo-referenced images into your drawing. Geo-referenced images are
images that are saved with real-world coordinates. These coordinates
can be used as a correlation source when you insert the image into a
drawing. Correlation controls the location, scale, and rotation of the
image.
Key Concepts
■
Some images, like GeoTIFFs, store correlation within the image file
itself, so you can choose Image File as the correlation source.
■
Other image types are saved with world files that store the
correlation information, and if a world file was saved for the image,
you can select the world file as the correlation source.
