Question

Answer

Geotiff

Why is my Geotiff not showing in the Survey Manager even though I can load it into the Navigation Display?

Survey Manager looks at the geodetic settings in the file.
If they do not match with the project settings, the image will be reprojected so it is still drawn in the correct location.

It might be that the coordinates in the file are correct for the project's geodetic settings, but the header of the file contains other geodetic settings.

In this case try to change the geodetic settings with the software with which you originally created the geotiff.
