Summary
Description
The original countywide mosaic from the NAIP was converted to grayscale for mapping purposes with the original compression. This metadata contains the information for the original mosaic. Digital orthographic imagery datasets contain georeferenced images of the Earth's surface, collected by a sensor in which object displacement has been removed for sensor distortions and orientation, and terrain relief. Digital orthoimages have the geometric characteristics of a map, and image qualities of a photograph. (Source: Circular A-16, p. 16)
