VECTORIZE AERIAL PHOTO/SATELLITE IMAGERY USING R2V



  • Aerial photos and satellite imagery provide the rich information source for computer mapping and map creation.    
  • You can use R2V to extract vector boundaries from aerial photos or satellite imagery or trace streets and roads.    
  • If your image is classified, the Vector/Auto Vectorize command can create map layers for all classes with just a single command.    
  • Here is an example of a map created from SPOT imagery:
