Imagery data for the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Scotts Bluff National Monument

1995. Imagery data for the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Scotts Bluff National Monument

This reference contains the imagery data used in the completion of the baseline vegetation inventory project for the NPS park unit. Orthophotos, raw imagery, and scanned aerial photos are common files held here. Two types of aerial photography were provided for the project. The photography received was natural color and color infrared (CIR), nominal scale of 1:12,000, dated July 1995. Each type consisted of prints and diapositives. Both sets of imagery were evaluated to determine which film type would be used as the primary source. Upon review it was determined to use the natural color photography as the primary source. The CIR photos were very bright and washed out at rock outcrop areas, causing a glare on adjacent areas.
