Qgis rubber sheeting help.
All documentation is in english but some documents such as the user guide are also available in other languages.
Rubber sheeting may improve the value of such sources and make them easier to compare to modern maps.
Or qgis or anything free.
You will find documentation for every qgis long term release on the respective documentation website.
In rubbersheeting adjustments you are usually trying to align one layer with another that is often in close proximity.

Plugin vector bender come collocare uno dwg dxf shp nella corretta posizione geografica funziona come il georeferenziatore per i raster.
Qgis georeferencer plug in provides a number of transformation types including thin plate spline which enables full rubber sheeting.
This will start the process of warping the image using the gcps and creating the target raster.
The georeferencing is now complete.
The source layer drawn with solid lines is adjusted to the more accurate target layer.
Rubbersheeting is used to make small geometric adjustments in your data usually to align features with more accurate information.
Geo referencing through rubber sheeting most suited for bhutanese students cnr.
Rubber sheeting is commonly used after a transformation to further refine the alignment accuracy of the transformed features.
I believe rubber sheeting is more of a distortion based on a number of different vectors.

For steps to transform features using affine or similarity transformation methods see transform features.
Rubber sheeting is a useful technique in historical gis where it is used to digitize and add old maps as feature layers in a modern gis.
Qgis is a free open source gis package.
Back in the georeferencer window go to file start georeferencing.
Make sure the load in qgis when done option is checked.
Qgis has a lot of documentation.
