<DIV><FONT size=2>I seem to be having a conceptual problem with Grass and
images. I would like to bring a scanned image into Grass and to
assign coordinates to the image and then probably save it as a geotiff or
geojpg. I thought i.rectify would be the ticket but after trying to do so
and reading the manual pages I now think that i.rectify is only for use with an
already rectified image and actually seems to be used to transform an already
rectified image rather than to assign coordinate for the first time. So
how does one put coordinates on a scanned image the first time? Can this
be done in Grass or do I have to go out and get a multi-hundred/thousand dollar
program to assign coordinates to a scanned map that doesn't have coordinates
assigned yet?</FONT></DIV>
