I believe rubber sheeting is more of a distortion based on a number of different vectors.

Rubber sheeting polygon collection into another using postgis.
On the edit tab in the snapping group enable your snapping preferences.
This is sometimes referred to as image to vector conflation.
For steps to transform features using affine or similarity transformation methods see transform features.
Often this has to be done when layers created from adjacent map sheets are joined together.
Rubber sheeting is a useful technique in historical gis where it is used to digitize and add old maps as feature layers in a modern gis.
This will start the process of warping the image using the gcps and creating the target raster.
Rubber sheeting with r and gdal update.
How do i create a 4 x 4 grid over the orange grid like the pink ish one.
In cartography rubbersheeting refers to the process by which a layer is distorted to allow it to be seamlessly joined to an adjacent geographic layer of matching imagery such as satellite imagery which are digital maps.
The rendering speed in r is much slower than qgis so it takes longer to zoom and click on each of the corners meaning there s lots of wasted time when using r.
Rubber sheeting is necessary because the imagery and the vector data will rarely match up correctly due to various reasons s.

Make sure the load in qgis when done option is checked.
Qgis now has a plugin called vector bender which can spatially adjust vector data.

In cartography this is known as rubber sheeting because it treats the map as if it were made of rubber and the control points as if they were tacks pinning the historical document to a three dimensional surface like the globe.
Once the process finishes you will see the georeferenced layer loaded in qgis.
The georeferencing is now complete.
Isn t an affline transformation a uniform shift.
Rubber sheeting may improve the value of such sources and make them easier to compare to modern maps.
Before aerial photography arrived most maps were highly inaccurate by modern standards.
In the end i ve actually just gone with using qgis to do the georeferencing.
Rubber sheeting is commonly used after a transformation to further refine the alignment accuracy of the transformed features.
