The image file can come from a scanner, digital camera or screenshot. The numbers can be read on the screen, and written or copied to a spreadsheet.

The process starts with an image file containing a graph or map. The final result is digitized data that can be used by other tools such as Microsoft Excel and Gnumeric.

Engauge (from en "make" and gauge "to measure") verb meaning to convert an image file containing a graph or map, into numbers.

The term "Engauge" in Engauge Digitizer was invented for this project, since there seems to be no similar term in common use.

Why Would You Need This Tool?

Here are some real-life examples:
· You are an engineer with some graphs in decades-old documents, but you really need the numbers represented in those graphs so you can do analyses that will determine if a space vehicle is safe to fly.
· You are a graduate student gathering historical data from charts for your thesis.
· You are a webmaster with visitor statistics charts and you want to do a statistical analysis.
· You ride a bike or boat and want to know how much distance you covered in your last trip, but you do not have an odometer or GPS unit. However, you do have a map.
