2. Select the Add georef image button at the bottom of the Irregular lines panel. 

   

3. An Add Image panel displays.

   • drag and drop the image file into the box (in JPEG or PNG format), or  
   • navigate to a file and upload it manually. 
5. The image will upload and appear beside the spatial view.  

   

   • A message will appear with instructions to place 2 or more pairs of control points.

     

   • A Control points panel will appear at the bottom right of the screen, which displays the positioning of the image against the spatial view.
6. Position the image with control points.  

   

   • Select the control points in each respective screen. Two points are required, but selecting a third gives redundancy. 
   • As you add these, you will see the results of the geo-referencing on the Control points panel. 
7. Select the Complete button on the Control points panel to confirm the position of the image, or 
   • delete a control point by selecting the X next to it, then add another control point 
   • press Esc to exit. 

     

8. The image will now appear aligned with the map. 

   

9. To manage the georeferenced image, go to the Layers panel, under Georeferenced images. 

   

   • Use the slider to determine the level of opacity of the image. 
   • Select the tick box to show the image in the spatial view, or select X to remove this image from the survey. A message will ask ‘Are you sure you want to delete xxx?’ Select Delete.
