This aerial photography taken in 2011 covers the area in and around Wolf Trap National Park for the Performing Arts, Virginia. The data originates from the Virginia Base Mapping Project (VBMP) and the component tiles were downloaded from the U.S. Geological Survey Earth Resources Observation and Science (EROS) Center’s Earth Explorer website (http://earthexplorer.usgs.gov/). For the VBMP project, ortho products are 1-foot resolution statewide ortho-imagery with upgrades to 6-inch resolution tiles and 3-inch resolution tiles in various regions within the project area. All data acquired in 2011 is jurisdiction based and is mostly in the western half of the state with upgrades requested in the eastern half of the state. The Virginia Base Mapping project encompasses the entire land area of the Commonwealth of Virginia over 4 years. The State boundary is buffered by 1000'. Coastal areas of the State bordering the Atlantic Ocean or the Chesapeake Bay are buffered by 1000' or the extent of man-made features extending from shore." An orthoimage is remotely sensed image data in which displacement of features in the image caused by terrain relief and sensor orientation have been mathematically removed. Orthoimagery combines the image characteristics of a photograph with the geometric qualities of a map. There is no image overlap between adjacent files. Data received at EROS were reprojected from: Projection: NAD_1983_HARN_StatePlane_Virginia_North_FIPS_4501_Feet Resolution: 1 foot Type: 4 Band to: Standard Product Projection: NAD_1983_UTM_Zone_18N Standard Product Resolution: 0.3000 m Rows: 5,000 Columns: 5,000 and resampled to align to the USNG using the USGS Seamless system. The naming convention is based on the U.S. National Grid (USNG), taking the coordinates of the SW corner of the orthoimage. The naming convention is based on the U.S. National Grid (USNG), taking the coordinates of the SW corner of the orthoimage. The metadata were imported and updated for display through The National Map Seamless Server at Chip-level metadata are provided in HTML and XML format.
