A dataset to get you going
Download the the zip file, unzip, and use.

DOWNLOAD TEST FILES

File 1 in the set is the session file saved from the use of the GeoMapApp 

File 2 in the set is the image from this session saved from the GeoMapApp 

The two other files in the set are the output from ImageXML, ready for use with eQuakes or Pplates. 

Get the GeoMapApp and choose a region of Earth.

Save your own image, and the session information. 

Load both in turn using the ImageXML app.

Now create a cropped image and the accompanying XML file, in the same directory.

These are now in the form that can be directly imported as a registered image in eQuakes and Pplates.
