Manual Digitisation Overview

1. Scan map or image


2. If image not referenced, collect ground coordinates of
control points
3. Digitize control points (tics, reference points, etc.) of known
location
4. Transform (register) image to known coordinate system
5. Digitize feature boundaries in stream or point mode

Editing

Line snapping:
When a vertex or node is “close” to a line or end point, the lines are
“snapped” together

Point snapping:
Points which fall within a specified distance of each other are snapped
(typically, on point eliminated).

Digitizing Maps - Automated Scanners


• Suitable thresholding allows determination of line or point
features from the hardcopy map.
• Scanners work best when very clean map materials are
available
• Significant editing still required (thinning, removing unwanted
features)
