What is georeferencing, and why is it important for mapping? 

Georeferencing is the process of aligning spatial data (e.g., images, scans, or point clouds) to real-world coordinates, using trajectory data from a localisation system. It ensures that the collected data is accurately positioned in a global coordinate system, which is critical for precise mapping, navigation, and analysis.
