[OSGeo Africa] Georeferencing or overlaying old aerial photograph with cadastre

Jeff,

Depending on the topography (relief variations over the area covered) 
and photoscale you will probably have to cope with both relief and 
radial displacements - assuming you are not using orthophotos.  Ideal 
situation for good georeferencing of standard aerial photos would be 
flat ground and a large photoscale.

Regards,
Mike
