Frank Miller Vegetation Map 1938 Raster Image

National Park Service, Great Smoky Mountains National Park. 2009. Frank Miller Vegetation Map 1938 Raster Image. National Park Service, Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Resource Mangement and Science

The Frank Miller vegetation map, which was drawn in 1938, was scanned using a Vidar color scanner at 600 DPI. The map was originally seperated into four seperate segments. A digital image of each segment was brought into ArcMap. Each piece was Georeferenced based on the coordinates given on the map and was then Clipped based on the same coordinates to remove any white space. The Mosaic tool was then used to join the four map pieces into one large image. The image was then projected using UTM17N as the basis for the projection.
