Re: [Qgis-user] Georeferencing Vector Files

[Springfield Harrison]

Hello Richard,

        Will try this also.  I use DesignCAD 3D, so no fancy addons but I can manually rotate and shift the vectors to fit the two tie points.  I'm creating the vector file in a spreadsheet with distance and bearing entries so will explore closure and transformation there too.

        If the Plugin works, that's what I'll likely use.

                 Thanks again, cheers . . . . .   Spring Harrison

Hi,
There is one sure way to do this, Use your CAD Package to align the property survey to the correct CRS, using two common points.
What CAD Package are you using, if you have AutoCAD, then you can use the align command to preform this, I assume that other packages have similar commands!
There are vector align plugin's available, but I find the above method simplest, There is a CAD plugin being proposed to help with this process in the future, but it is unfortunately not yet available.
I hope this helps, If I can be of any further help, let me know.
Regards,

Richard.

Hello All,

Is there a tool/plugin for georeferencing vector files to an existing projected layer?

I'm intending to bring in property survey drawings that have only local coordinates but projected coordinates (UTM) are available for some corners.

Thank you . . . .
