Auto georeference aerial photo in ArcGIS | burdGIS

Georeferencing can be a pain but if you need to assign a coordinate system to an image or aerial photo ArcMap has you covered. With a click you georeference your image and save some eye-strain.

"wubba lubba dub dub" hahaha thanks man

Hi guys, I'm actually trying to do the same with grayscale aerial photos (archival like 50s. 70s. 80s. ) and both ArcMap and ArcGIS PRO fail to do it properly, is there any way you could help me with that?

[@burdGIS]

What are you using as the reference? From memory a grayscale image will require a grayscale reference. Get in touch if you're stuck!

[@plyrakkan]

Can use Drone image with Google Satellite Georeferencing?

[@burdGIS]

I've never tried it :-) it would be very dependent on the area of interest and how recent the gsat images are.

[@burdGIS]

Let me know how you get on if you try it!

[@plyrakkan]

Ok i will try.More question pls,Can i open ecw file in arcmap10.1?

[@burdGIS]

It looks like .ecw can be read in Arc but you mightt have to export to another format if publishing. These are the docs for 10.3: desktop.arcgis.com/en/arcmap/10.3/manage-data/raster-and-images/supported-raster-dataset-file-formats.htm

[@plyrakkan]

Thx a lot bro.

[@Mayrazamora]

Could you save you’re drone aerial photography into a .jpg and import it like this?

[@burdGIS]

Yes that would work fine Mayra. Drone imagery would benefit from having GCPs (ground control points) so you can be sure of the locations.
