GIS User - February 2006

GISuser Test Drive - Geographic Imager, Avenza Systems Inc.

"Avenza's Geographic Imager is a plug-in for Adobe Photoshop CS2 that allows you to work with spatial raster images within Photoshop, thus allowing you to use the powerful and vast image editing tools of Photoshop to enhance and manipulate your spatial imagery. Not only will these images retain their georeference information after being processed by Photoshop, it is also possible to georeference, transform and mosaic them. In a way, Geographic Imager is to Photoshop what MAPublisher is to Illustrator."

Geographic Imager Adds Raster Functionality to Adobe Photoshop CS2

" For several years, Avenza Systems has sold its well-received MAPublisher product, a plug-in for Adobe Illustrator and Macromedia’s Freehand that provides exceptional map-making capabilities. These include the ability to import a range of vector GIS data formats, along with associated coordinates, as well as many other capabilities for creating high-quality cartographic compositions using Illustrator or Freehand. However, the tools in MAPublisher, Illustrator and Freehand focus on vector data—not georeferenced imagery.

Now, for imagery users, Avenza’s Geographic Imager offers similar capabilities, but focuses on raster imagery. Released in the summer of 2005, the product is a plug-in for Adobe’s Photoshop CS2 image-editing program."
