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 digital orthophoto mosaics, leaf-on (fall) and leaf-off (spring), were created for Booker T. Washington National Monument. Kucera International acquired color infrared, stereo pair 1:6,000 scale aerial photography for the leaf-on mosaic on October 22, 2001 and for the leaf-off mosaic on February 19, 2002. The photography was delivered to the NPS, quality checked, accepted as provided, and sent to NCSU-CEO. Upon receipt at NCSU-CEO, the air photos were counted to make sure that none were missing, scanned, saved in .tif format, and placed in the data archive maintained at North Carolina State University for the NPS Northeast Region Inventory and Monitoring Program. Associated data and information provided by Kucera International that are also stored in the data archive include the airborne global positioning system (GPS) and inertial mapping unit (IMU) data files, the camera calibration certificates for the cameras, and the hardcopy flight reports for the photography that crosswalk the airborne GPS and IMU data to the photo frame numbers.
