HOW DO I INSERT A TIFF FILE THAT HAS AN ATTACHED KMZ FILE IN AUTOCAD 2015

I can insert a TIFF file with an associated TFW file just fine but I am getting different data sets from a new company that do not use TFW or world files with the images that they are sending out. Any help would be great.

JP,

 

Maybe the geographic (or cartographic) data is embedded as tags within the TIFF file, making them "GeoTIFF"? Can you post one?

 

There's lots of third party software that will create a world file from embedded data, like GeoTiff Examiner:

Dave,
Thanks for the information. I would love to post one but the images we have are all 1Gb to 3Gb in size. I will see if that website can convert the files for me, I will let you know.

Thanks,

JP
