WELCOME TO THE SECOND PART OF LEARNING PLEX-EARTH 5 IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE!

With the previous tutorial, you learned how to import high-quality imagery, from a number of providers and datasets, straight into your AutoCAD environment.

However, the previous drawing was already Georeferenced and Plex-Earth knew exactly where to place the imported elements.

What do you think will happen, if a colleague of yours starts designing a project in the correct coordinates in AutoCAD with a specific Coordinate System, but when sending you the drawing, the Coordinate System is not assigned to your .dwg?

Exactly, Plex-Earth will not know where to place the imported Images.

So, you may be asking yourself can I define my Coordinate System with Plex-Earth?

Moreover, you may be wondering, ok I did all my imports, but can I edit my images with Plex-Earth?

Well, Plex-Earth has everything a designer could ask for!

You can Georeference your drawings by choosing between thousands of Coordinate Systems, as well as you can have total control of your imagery with amazing editing Tools.

Let's find out how!
