The graphic below illustrates the four possible changes.
Rubber sheet transformation in gis.
Rubbersheeting makes spatial adjustments to align the input feature locations with more accurate target feature locations based on the specified rubbersheet links.
Expand alignment and click transform.
The affine transformation function is.
Affine similarity and projective.
Before aerial photography arrived most maps were highly inaccurate by modern standards.
Click the spatial adjustment menu and click options.

Root mean square error measure of registration accuracy used during digitizing and coverage transformations.
Rubbersheeting is used to make small geometric adjustments in your data usually to align features with more accurate information.
Rubber sheeting topological process of stretching or shrinking a subarea or portion of a map or image to fit in registration with selected control points.
Qgis georeferencer plug in provides a number of transformation types including thin plate spline which enables full rubber sheeting.
Qgis is a free open source gis package.
It makes possible comparing and overlaying multiple maps from different time periods.
You can press and hold the spacebar to temporarily turn off snapping as you create anchor points and draw displacement links or rubber sheet area polygons.
The input link features represent the regular links.
On the edit tab in the features group click modify.
Rubber sheeting may improve the value of such sources and make them easier to compare to modern maps.
Click the options button.
Geometric distortions commonly occur in source maps.
Rubber sheeting is a useful technique in historical gis where it is used to digitize and add old maps as feature layers in a modern gis.
Click rubbersheet for the adjustment method so you can set additional options for rubbersheeting.
The modify features pane appears.
Click the spatial adjustment menu point to adjustment methods then click a transformation method.
Click the general tab.
Cadcorp spatial information system software sis map modeller is offering a tool for rubbersheeting data layers.
Click the spatial adjustment menu point to adjustment methods then click rubbersheet to set the adjustment method.
An affine transformation can differentially scale the data skew it rotate it and translate it.
Click the adjustment methods drop down arrow and click rubbersheet.
Used to control rubber sheeting and adjustment operations.
Click the spatial adjustment menu and click options.
Geometric correction of them.
They may be introduced by imperfect registration in map compilation lack of geodetic control in source data or a variety of other causes.
The input point features represent identity links that hold source positions unmoved during the rubbersheeting process.
