The input point features represent identity links that hold source positions unmoved during the rubbersheeting process.
Rubber sheet transformation in gis.
Click the spatial adjustment menu point to adjustment methods then click a transformation method.
Click the options button.
Rubber sheeting may improve the value of such sources and make them easier to compare to modern maps.
Click either the natural neighbor or linear method and click ok.
Rubbersheeting makes spatial adjustments to align the input feature locations with more accurate target feature locations based on the specified rubbersheet links.
The modify features pane appears.
Click the spatial adjustment menu point to adjustment methods then click rubbersheet to set the adjustment method.
Click rubbersheet for the adjustment method so you can set additional options for rubbersheeting.
Geometric correction of them.
Rubber sheeting topological process of stretching or shrinking a subarea or portion of a map or image to fit in registration with selected control points.
Expand alignment and click transform.
Used to control rubber sheeting and adjustment operations.
They may be introduced by imperfect registration in map compilation lack of geodetic control in source data or a variety of other causes.
Cadcorp spatial information system software sis map modeller is offering a tool for rubbersheeting data layers.
Rubber sheeting is a useful technique in historical gis where it is used to digitize and add old maps as feature layers in a modern gis.
Click the spatial adjustment menu and click options.
Geometric distortions commonly occur in source maps.
Click the spatial adjustment menu and click options.

An affine transformation can differentially scale the data skew it rotate it and translate it.
Click the adjustment methods drop down arrow and click rubbersheet.
It makes possible comparing and overlaying multiple maps from different time periods.
Qgis is a free open source gis package.
Root mean square error measure of registration accuracy used during digitizing and coverage transformations.
The affine transformation function is.
Rubbersheeting is used to make small geometric adjustments in your data usually to align features with more accurate information.
This drawback brings us to the idea of incorporating the historical maps into gis after rubber sheet transformation i e.

The graphic below illustrates the four possible changes.
Click the general tab.
By default arcmap supports three types of transformations.
You can press and hold the spacebar to temporarily turn off snapping as you create anchor points and draw displacement links or rubber sheet area polygons.
