Adding control points manually

Adding control points manually gives you the ability to snap to source and destination features in a map. You can also right-click and type the destination coordinates from the context menu.

Steps:

1. On the Georeferencing toolbar, click the Add Control Points button .
2. Snap to and click the source CAD feature to create the from-point. You can undo the point by pressing ESC on the keyboard.
3. Snap to and click its destination to create the to-point. This creates a link.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to create a second link.
   • For optimum results, create links that are far apart.
   • If you know the coordinates for the to-point, you can right-click and choose Input X and Y or Input DMS of Lon and Lat from the context menu.
