GEO-REFERENCING

What is Geo-referencing?  Technology allows us to take your old maps and drawings and assign real-world coordinate values to the elements on the scanned hard-copy originals.  These "intelligent images" can be assigned separate layers or themes for enhanced functionality within CAD or GIS.
Your historical maps and hard-copy tracings can have functionality within modern GIS through correlation to real-world coordinates.  Kroll can scan and correlate your traditional maps, providing spatial intelligence within GIS (or CAD).
