I am trying to georeference a jpg image of a map in ArcMap 9.3. Here's the process:
I add the spatially referenced data first, then add the jpg raster. The lon/lat coordinates are still correct at this point.
But the jpg is not in the view yet because the view is zoomed out to the full extent. The vector is global data of Mars, and the jpg map is just one small region.
So I click Zoom to Layer to make the jpg appear. It appears, but this is when the lon/lat coordinates are thrown way off. For instance, in decimal degrees, lon=20E, lat=20N will become something like lon=0.00136, lat=0.002302.
I want to zoom into the jpg and use Fit To Display on the vector to get the two to be about the same proportions in the data view before I start setting control points. What am I doing wrong? Thanks!
