High-Resolution Color Aerial Photography (Ortho Imagery) for Montana Counties

Are you looking for high-resolution color aerial photos (on DVD)  for areas in Montana?  We can provide to you on DVD, a county mosaic revealing 1-meter resolution color ortho photography for $48.70  (Images acquired 2005). Shipping is  free  using standard postal rates.   These represent NAIP / ortho imagery files or digital orthoquads (DOQs) merged to form a county-wide mosaic. 

The detail of the images is very good.  It is possible to see vehicles on a road, the color of roof tops and disturbances in soil.  The imagery was acquired during the agricultural growing seasons in Montana.  A primary goal of the mapping program is to enable availability of digital ortho photography that is current and of high quality.  These image are not satellite images, instead they were obtained from low-flying aircraft.

 

The NAIP imagery is a one meter ground sample distance (GSD) with a horizontal accuracy that matches within five meters of a reference ortho image, and a two meter GSD image that matches within 10 meters of reference ortho imagery.  The reference ortho imagery is a mosaic digital ortho quarter quads (DOQQs).

The imagery products are available as compressed county mosaics (CCM).  The mosaics are generated by compressing digital quarter quadrangle image tiles scanned from natural color positive or color infrared positive aerial film into a single mosaic.  The mosaic may cover all or portions of an individual county.  All individual tile images and the resulting mosaic were rectified to the UTM coordinate system, NAD 83 and cast into a single predetermined UTM zone.  Contractually, every attempt will be made to comply with the 10% cloud cover per quarter quad tile, weather conditions permitting.
