Geographic Imager, from Avenza Systems, is a plug-in that turns Adobe Photoshop into a tool for working with geospatial imagery on Mac. Instead of treating an aerial photo or satellite image as a flat picture, it keeps the map coordinates attached, so cartographers, GIS staff and image editors can import, edit and export spatial images inside the Photoshop workspace they already know, using a dedicated panel for the geographic tasks.

Key Features

• Import geospatial images such as aerial and satellite imagery while preserving their spatial reference
• Edit raster imagery in Photoshop without losing georeferencing information
• Work through a dedicated Geographic Imager panel integrated into Photoshop
• Export images in geospatial formats for use in GIS and mapping workflows
• Current release supports recent Photoshop versions and recent macOS releases

System Requirements

Geographic Imager 7.1 needs a licensed copy of a compatible Adobe Photoshop version (the 7.x line supports Photoshop 2025 and 2026) and a recent version of macOS, on an Apple silicon or Intel Mac. A valid Avenza licence is also required.

FAQs

Do I need Photoshop to use Geographic Imager?

Yes. Geographic Imager is an extension for Adobe Photoshop, not a standalone editor, so you need a compatible Photoshop installation and subscription first.

Is there a cheaper edition?

Avenza lists a Basic Edition alongside the full licence on its official site, so check the current editions and pricing there before buying the full version.
