Magic Georeferencer QGIS 4 compatibility
Not QGIS 4 ready Active
Not yet — the latest version declares max QGIS version 3.99.0, so it is not offered to QGIS 4 users.
AI-powered automatic image georeferencing using MatchAnything deep learning model
About
Automatically georeference maps, aerial photos, and sketches using the MatchAnything deep learning model. Simply navigate to the approximate location and let AI find the matching features. . Features: - Zero manual GCP placement - fully automated - Cross-modality support (maps to aerial, aerial to maps, sketches to maps) - Progressive multi-scale refinement for improved accuracy - GPU acceleration with automatic CPU fallback - Confidence-based match filtering . Requirements: - QGIS 3.22 or higher (Windows, macOS, Linux) - Python 3.9+ (bundled with QGIS) - 8 GB RAM minimum, 16 GB recommended - ~2 GB disk space for model cache - Optional: NVIDIA GPU with CUDA for faster processing . External Dependencies (auto-installed on first run): - PyTorch >= 2.0.0 and TorchVision >= 0.15.0 (deep learning framework) - Transformers >= 4.30.0 (HuggingFace model support) - OpenCV >= 4.8.0 (image processing) - SciPy >= 1.9.0 (scientific computing) . The plugin automatically downloads the AI model weights (~400 MB) from HuggingFace on first use. . Platform Support: Works on Windows, macOS, and Linux. GPU acceleration requires NVIDIA CUDA-capable GPU (optional, CPU fallback available). . License: Apache License 2.0
