## Importing Georeferenced Images / Rasters

#### Supported Formats

Touch GIS supports importing the following image formats:

* World File
* Geotiff
* KMZ
* Geospatial PDF

These formats will be tiled and overlaid on their corresponding areas on the map automatically.

## Manually Placing Raster Images

Touch GIS allows you to place non-georeferenced rasters on your map by selecting a series of correlated visual reference points.  Here's how:

1. At the bottom of the Layers panel select 'Import'
2. Choose the file you want to place (typically a TIFF, PNG, or JPEG)
3. After importing, you'll be prompted to select your first reference point. Pan and zoom to select a visual point that you will be able to correlate with a feature on the basemap. Select Next.
4. Next you will select the corresponding reference on your basemap. Pan and zoom to find this spot.&#x20;
5. You will need to repeat this process two more times for a total of 3 reference points to place your raster image.&#x20;

After all 3 points have been set you can edit their position if necessary from the Layers panel.
