Description

This vector shapefile is one of two layers that depict the extent of the 2003 digital orthophoto mosaic for the coastal and nearshore areas of Bering Land Bridge National Preserve (BELA), Cape Krusenstern National Monument (CAKR), and nearby portions of northwestern Alaska. The extent polygons are attributed with photo source (NOAA or NPS) and acquisition date. The orthophoto mosaic was created by Aero-Metric from 1:24,000-scale, natural-color aerial photographs acquired for NPS on July 19, 2003, and for NOAA on September 14-24, 2003. Other imagery available in this series includes orthorectified aerial photography for approximately 1950 and 1980. All data is available through an unrestricted public license, and can be obtained on a hard drive by request (see Distributor contact information below). The imagery will be of interest to land managers, scientists, and others for observation and analysis of natural features and ecosystems.
