Qubus

Depending on your field of work, sometimes you might need to deal with georeferenced images. Whether you need to work on mapping an archeological site, a future construction area or simply want to create a realistic model for a project of yours, georeferenced images will definitely be an important part of this. When in need of a capable browser for such files, Qubus could actually come in handy.

While the application might become useful for a handful of people, it only has a limited amount of functions. This is not to say that the application will not be of use. Just don't go imagining something more than it really is. The application moves snappy, and right from the start will allow you to scroll all over the world. Zoom in or out to see more or less details. The maps are loaded quickly.

No matter the moment, place or even task, the application can be controlled quite easily. You can view a tiled version of the map in and around the same area. You can use image positioning on the map and overlay map tiles. Image sorting algorithms are also part of the program.

As far as use scenarios are concerned, there are many possible things you could do with Qubus. Georeferenced images are quite common in creating 3D landscapes for various projects and even video games. The same applies to archaeology-related projects and sometimes even in construction planning. Generally, if it has to do with some sort of landscape planning, it will deal most likely with georeferencing.

Thus, Qubus could be a useful application for viewing georeferenced images when starting a project that deals with this sort of technology. It could save you time searching for the image itself and spare you the frustration of not finding a detailed enough version of the images you are looking for.
