Visualizing GCPs as ground points

When you select to view ground control points (GCP) as ground points, Focus uses the stored geographic coordinates in the source file to generate a new three-dimensional point-vector layer with each GCP represented by a single point shape. The generated layer uses the same projection as the GCP segment and can overlay correctly with any other geocoded layer.

To view GCPs as ground points
  • On the Files tab, right-click a GCP segment, point to View, and then click As Ground Points.

    A new vector map layer based on the selected GCP segment is created and displayed in the view pane. The GCPs appear as symbols in the displayed layer and the new map layer is listed on the Maps tab.
