7.3.1.2 4 Point joining

This is the alternative technique for joining sets of image data. Pairs of images to be joined are

prepared for processing by the operator using coloured pointers on screen. Scanworks uses

these locations to bring pairs of images into alignment. 4 Point is slightly more efficient because

it takes care of any skew error as part of the alignment process. A pair of markers is placed on

the same two locations as they are repeated in each of the overlapping parts of the two separate

scans as follows. Place the red arrow pair above two easily identifiable locations on the right

side image (see B & D). Now move to the left side image and place the blue arrow pair above

the same two points but on the other image containing the same data in an overlap (see A & C).

Now click JOIN.
