GIS processing and plan georeferencing

A drawing in local coordinates does not automatically align with a real-world map. MK Surveys supports plan georeferencing, spatial data organisation and export into the required format. We connect CAD with GIS by clearly identifying coordinate references and suitable control sources.

FROM THE PRACTICE’S PORTFOLIO

Example of property features represented within a mapped context

Denis Kaca · Geodetic engineer · Master’s in GIS · 15 years of experience

The service suits engineering practices, mapping teams and developers who need data positioned appropriately within a spatial context. Remote collaboration can support international clients when source materials contain enough reference information for verification.

What the service includes

  • Review of source and target coordinate reference systems.
  • Plan georeferencing using appropriate control points or references.
  • Coordinate transformation and positioning checks.
  • Checks of polygons, closure and problematic geometries.
  • Organisation of layers and attributes with agreed export formats.

What we need to get started

Send the source file, location and required final format. Control points, measurements, survey documentation and coordinate reference information are particularly useful. If a drawing only has local coordinates, we need an appropriate basis for connecting it to real-world coordinates.

Scope and limitations

Accuracy depends on the quality of the control points and reference sources. Visual alignment with satellite imagery does not itself verify legal boundaries. We distinguish assigning a reference system from actually transforming coordinates.

FAQ / 04

Frequently asked questions

Can you convert a DWG to GeoJSON?

Yes, where its features can be processed as suitable geometries. We agree the layers, attributes, coordinate reference and required checks.

Is a Google Earth image enough for accurate georeferencing?

Not necessarily. Imagery can help with orientation, but technical verification needs references of a quality appropriate to the task.

Can you work with plans without real-world coordinates?

Yes, when reliable control points or reference sources are provided. The method and limitations are defined after reviewing the material.
