KaliBro Product Review

KaliBro is a well-known and appreciated land survey software to georeference (calibrate) rasters in a CAD environment. With KaliBro you can also comfortably edit, correct and manage raster images

Georeferencing (calibration)

• The unique manner of determining reference points – Drawing simple lines in CAD connecting points from a raster with target points from a drawing.
• Huge control over calibration and comfortable edition of adjustment points
• The tool “calibrate to a grid” – Greatly accelerates calibrating maps with a grid of crosses.
• Variety of transformation models – By similarity, affinity, two-row, polynomial of second or third degree.
• Generating reports from calibration
• Optional application of Hausbrandt corrections to every transformation method – The breakthrough solution allowing to calibrate even very deformed rasters.

Editing raster images

• painting (cleaning out) a selected area
• inversion, cropping, merging and denoising
• removing marks after cropping a map frame
• editing a fragment of a raster in a chosen external editor

Managing rasters

• raster preview
• saving geo-reference
• zooming a group of rasters
• changing a colour or transparency of rasters in a CAD drawing
• converting format of a file, compression, and colour pallet
• many more!
