whiskeyportal Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 (edited) Hi, I am trying to bring a GEOTIFF into WED but I'm having an issue. When the image is placed it just shows as a blank image.I created the GEOTIFF using Global Mapper. I set control points in Google Earth, saved the image, brought it into Global Mapper, Rectified the image, and exported it as a GEOTIFF. But when I tell WED to open it, WED only displays a blank image. I tried exporting it as a kmz to make sure my control points were accurate and everything lined up as it should, so I know my control is accurate. I have tried using other formats with the same result. I'm using wed_win_110r1 on Windows 7 64-bit if that helps. I'll attach my tiff if anyone else wants to see if it loads right for them scrf-2.tiff Edited February 12, 2013 by whiskeyportal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redfisher Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 I have, but I can't recall what it was. I've just downloaded you image and I'll take a look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whiskeyportal Posted February 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 Well after asking the same question at the other place I was told to check the location of my geotiff. I was unaware that the image, even if used only for reference, needs to be in the same folder as the scenery you are working on. After moving the geotiff all is right and the image is visible. So if anyone else runs into this, now they'll know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
