[QUOTE="fever, post: 191923, member: 6142"] Sorry - to wet the appetite I thought I would post links to the software packages. The education (and frustration) then follows: Iphone/pad app that I use to import maps to is by avenza and is called PDF Maps - tried to post a link, but forum wont let me because I am a newbie - just google it. If nothing else you can just get that app and use some of the free stuff in there. I recently asked avenza to upload all of the parks victoria prospecting area maps - if you search in the app once you've downloaded it you can get these parknotes maps for free (plus many more) - and they are accurately georeferenced so can be used in the field. I use this software to georeference images - Q landkarte gt, cant link it so look for the "sourceforge" website that has the software for free There is an instruction page on how to georeference. Will need translation in to human speak, currently looks like robots constructed it. Google - "Georeference_a_map" and "qlandkartegt" and "Sourceforge" You will also need a software package like Adobe that can turn pdf's in to tiff images. But that's a story for another day. Fever.
