Georeferencing SBuilderX Satellite Imagery with Global Mapper | MSFS Scenery Tutorial

In this tutorial, I'll show you how to manually georeference (rectify) imagery previously obtained or compiled with SBuilderX for FSX & P3D, for later use in MSFS 2020. This tutorial uses Global Mapper (A payware program)!

For another rectification method using QGIS (a free alternative) and (as this tutorial doesn't cover it) how to create aerial images for MSFS, see this tutorial by FSMADDNESSPILOT:

NOTICE: Always know the terms of use for a data source when using it in a project that will be published! It's important to point out that the data used in this tutorial was not downloaded from an SBuilderX tile source, but used SBuilderX as a medium to position the data for use in FSX and P3D.
