WorldImage¶
A world file is a plain text file used to georeference raster map images. This file (often with an extension of .jgw
or .tfw
) accompanies an associated image file (.jpg
or .tif
). Together, the world file and the corresponding image file is known as a WorldImage in GeoServer.
Adding a WorldImage data store¶
By default, WorldImage will be an option in the Raster Data Sources list when creating a new data store.
