This is especially powerful when using aerial photography as the background, allowing users to review the spatial patterns of their own data against the aerial photo. An example of a Raster Underlay map created with Atlas GIS 3.03 can be found on our Atlas Maps page . In order to best do this, identify two obvious places or intersections that can easily be identified in both the aerial photograph and your street file in Atlas. For optimum results make these two points diagonally across from each other as close to the top and bottom of the page as you can. Zoom in as closely as you can on the aerial photo and Click the first registration point.
Close zooms are critical to accuracy.
Zoom in as closely as you can in Atlas and Shift-Click to register the first point. Repeat the process for the second point. Repeat as necessary for the most accurate registration. Please ask for the product by name and by number, C4120003. Here s an example of using Atlas and Excel together to create a nicely formatted site report.
