About the WorldFileTool
***********************
An interactive tool and a library to georeference images using free and open source software. A World file and the KML format enable GIS programs to read georeferenced images.


Features
********
* Loads, edits and saves KML with its linked image
* If needed, rotates an image to be north aligned and saves it back (and rotating raster images is NOT trivial and at least time consuming!)
* Supports following graphic file formats: jpg, tiff, png, gif
* Imports and exports a World file with its corresponding image
