Geographic Imager Features

Geographic Imager Panel improved The Geographic Imager® panel in Adobe Photoshop CS3 and CS4 provides access to all the tools and functions quickly and easily. All spatial information related to a GeoTIFF, DEM, ECW, MrSID or other supported image including the co-ordinate system, world location of the corners and pixel size are displayed along with buttons to access the various Geographic Imager functions. More time is left to edit geospatial data rather than searching for tools.
	Retain Spatial Properties Geographic Imager allows the use of Adobe Photoshop native functionality without destroying the spatial properties of a GeoTIFF, DEM, ECW, MrSID or other spatial image. Easily manipulate and adjust the visual elements such as colour values and levels, histograms, hues and sharpness. Spatial properties of the image are automatically updated and retained even after performing crop, rotate or geospatial adjustments. This is important in industries such as photogrammetry and remote sensing where it is necessary for analysis.
Import and Export Spatial Imagery improved Import and manage georeferenced imagery in Adobe Photoshop such as GeoTIFF, JPG, PSD and other compatible raster data formats. Export reference files as standard industry formats such as TFW, GeoTIFF, RSF, TAB, and ERS. GeoCrop Import allows you to crop images during the import process (before they are opened), making it a great way to crop large images. See a complete list of supported formats.
Import Elevation Data improved Import DEM formats such as ArcInfo ASCII Grid, ArcInfo Binary Grid, USGS DEM ASCII/CDED, Military Elevation Data/DTED and SRTM. Assign a DEM Schema during import for easier rendering. Create shaded relief maps in Adobe Photoshop quick and easily. Overlay aerial photography to create custom looking images. See a complete list of supported formats.
Georeference Imagery improved Import or add ground control points for accurate georeferencing of aerial photography or satellite imagery with multiple transformation types supported. Assess residual errors to improve geoferencing and save control point data as reference files. Quick Georeference by a single tie point, two tie points, or from other documents.
	Transform Extensive support for thousands of geographic and projected coordinate systems with the ability to save custom definitions for future use. Correct orthophotos and to achieve accurate map measurements which aids in image analysis.
Mosaic improved Mosaic raster images to create a seamless image. Retain images as separate layers or flatten to create one image. Now supports image transformation during Mosaic, making it easier to get the images the way you want. Also, now create seamless mosaics of images with different coordinate systems, pixel sizes, channels and colour modes.
Tile improved Tile raster data into multiple images by tile size or count and automatically saves tiles using sequential naming into any supported spatial image format. Great for turning large satellite images into smaller tiles and serving them online.
	GeoCrop improved The GeoCrop tool allows image cropping based on a combination of pixels or geographic coordinates (geodetic and projected). Easily define coordinates or draw a crop area to see a preview. GeoCrop Import allows you to crop images during import, making it a great way to crop large images without the need to open them first.
Merge and Split Channels improved Adobe Photoshop Merge and Split Channels are now supported. Useful for remote sensing, create false- and true-colour images and retain all georeferencing.
	Automate Tasks improved Create scripts and actions of Geographic Imager and Adobe Photoshop tools to automate repetitive tasks. All Geographic Imager tools are compatible with automation.
Licensing new Easily manage license options including commercial, academic, multi-user and floating. Empower multiple users on a network with cost effective network or floating licenses.
Compatibility improved Mac and Windows versions available for Windows XP/Vista/7 (including 64-bit support) operating system and Intel-based Mac hardware.
