What is a World File?

A world file is the companion file to a map or an image that includes basic plain-text information about location and scale, i.e. geo-referencing.

Download the ones you want and be sure to put them in the same folder on your computers hard drive that the associated MrSID files are in.

The world files and the .sid files must be in the same folder for them to work correctly together with GIS software.
