Georeferencing is crucial to make aerial and satellite imagery, usually raster images, useful for mapping as it explains how other data, such as the above GPS points, relate to the imagery.

Georeferencing allows you to adjust and align your raster data with your other GIS data.

Georeferencing is the process of assigning real-world Coordinates (Latitude and Longitude) to a raster image or dataset so that it aligns correctly with a Geographic Coordinate System (GCS).

Georeferencing means that the internal coordinate system of a digital map or aerial photo can be related to a ground system of geographic coordinates. A georeferenced digital map or image …

When you take any ordinary image and give it real-world coordinates, you are georeferencing it. You can stretch, scale, rotate, and skew the image to better relate to physical space.
