Lowe, USFWS, Right Rear Photographer - David S. Pitkin, USFWS These slides have been scanned at 1200 - 5000 DPI and have about 1-foot pixel resolution. Please note that these photos have not been georeferenced. The photos have not been orthorectified and therefore there will be photo anomalies and mis-matches between adjoining photos. Caution should be exercised if attempting to use this imagery to conduct measurements. This geospatial representation includes the best quality images for each nesting seabird colony. The metadata includes grades for image quality.
