     72== Using auto calibration action ==
     73
     74This action helps you to position and calibrate an image (preferably a floor plan) into the world map.
     75
     76'''What do I need to use this action?'''
     77* an image, preferably a floor plan
     78* information about side length of building
     79* an .osm or .gpx file with building outline coordinates
     80
     81'''How do I start calibration?'''
     82* 1. open the image file and switch to the image layer so you can see the [[osmwiki:JOSM/Plugins/PicLayer|PicLayer]] modes on left side
     83* 2. enter the "Calibrate Picture with outline" mode
     84* 3. follow the window
     85* 3.1 select '''edge points''' (example in picture)
     86
     87   [[Image(set_edge_points.png, 300px)]]
     88
     89* 3.2 enter '''distances''' - if you select the text field a green line will pop up and show you which distance on the image is required. Please enter the real distance in meter between the two points.
     90   
     91   [[Image(select_distances.png, 300px)]]
     92
     93* 3.3 open the '''reference file''' - open a .osm or .gpx file with coordinates of building outline
     94* 3.4 select '''reference points'''
     95  * 3.4.1 mode selection - if the building outline coordinates are already defined in layer, select '''defined''' mode (.osm files only), if you want to set the coordinates somewhere on layer, select '''manual''' mode
     96  * 3.4.2 select the same points as in step 3.1, now only on your real building outline (example in picture)
     97

     106'''Note:''' Sometimes the image does not fit exactly into the outline, see ''More Information''!
     107
     108'''More information'''
     109
     110For more information about why do I need to insert distances and why the image usually does not fit exactly in the outline file, see [[osmwiki:JOSM/Plugins/PicLayer|PicLayer Page]].
