Description:

Abstract: These files contain 2005 leaf-off digital orthoimagery of Erie, Monroe and Niagara counties in New York. Image pixel size is 1 ft. GSD. Image type is Digital Natural Color. Image horizontal accuracy is +/-4 ft. at the 95% confidence level.  Each file contains an image covering 3000 ft. by 2000 ft. on the ground.

Purpose: This digital orthoimagery can serve a variety of purposes, from general planning to field reference for spatial analysis to a tool for revision of vector maps. It can also serve as a reference layer for GIS.

Supplemental_Information: Digital elevation models used for orthorectification were compiled from several sources, all of which were compiled photogrammetrically.
