Quick Georeference Method To Match Google Earth

In the video below we show you a quick and easy method to georeference your TBC project to match up with Google Earth from the get go.

The process includes

  • Creating a measurement in Google Earth between any two points that you can find in the PDF Plans.
  • Export that measurement as a KML/KMZ file from Google Earth
  • Open a new TBC Project
  • Set the Coordinate System for the Project - e.g. Ohio North
  • Import the KML/KMZ file of he measurement
  • Use PDF Manager in Multipoint mode to georeference the two points in the plan sheet to the ends of the imported measurement baseline
  • Check the PDF file against the background map service in TBC to check that it fits and overlays well
