Geographic Information Systems Asked by Fiet Kleiner on June 5, 2021
I want to georeference a map (TIFF) from 1965 using the grid crosses as ground control points. The map is in the local coordinate system which I calculated and wrote a custom coordinate system for.
When I want to start the georeferencing it says transformation is not possible. I am afraid it doesn’t work because of my custom coordinate reference system. If I use another system it "works" ( but then the map is wrong obviously).

Also my QGIS version 3.16 is not the problem. I tried with version 3.10.
Is there a way to georeference a TIFF to my custom coordinate system?
I would try to georeference it to EPSG:4326 and then change that to your local system. A 2-step process. Have you tried it?
