<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Currently, when I wish to plot data in JOSM using a
raster image, I obtain an image file such as .tif or .jpg from the internet or
by scanning, register it in an application, save it as a .shp file, use GPS
Utility to save it as a .gpx file and open that in JOSM. As I write it
seems like a long-winded process, although it does not take very long to
do. What I am rather more concerned about is a possible shift in the
position of the data, because I usually find I have to adjust it to match the
underlying data layer. I wondered if there was a way I might shorten
that process by opening and registering the original image file in JOSM.
Even being able to open a .shp file might help.</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
