49493 2011_grandbay_nerr Data Set Published / External 49403 Imagery - partner (no harvest) Project Completed 2012-05-07 This data set contains imagery from the National Agriculture Imagery Program (NAIP). The NAIP program is administered by USDA FSA and has been established to support two main FSA strategic goals centered on agricultural production. These are, increase stewardship of America's natural resources while enhancing the environment, and to ensure commodities are procured and distributed effectively and efficiently to increase food security. The NAIP program supports these goals by acquiring and providing ortho imagery that has been collected during the agricultural growing season in the U.S. The NAIP ortho imagery is tailored to meet FSA requirements and is a fundamental tool used to support FSA farm and conservation programs. Ortho imagery provides an effective, intuitive means of communication about farm program administration between FSA and stakeholders. New technology and innovation is identified by fostering and maintaining a relationship with vendors and government partners, and by keeping pace with the broader geospatial community. As a result of these efforts the NAIP program provides three main products: DOQQ tiles, Compressed County Mosaics (CCM), and Seamline shape files The Contract specifications for NAIP imagery have changed over time reflecting agency requirements and improving technologies. These changes include image resolution, horizontal accuracy, coverage area, and number of bands. In general, flying seasons are established by FSA and are targeted for peak crop growing conditions. The NAIP acquisition cycle is based on a minimum 3 year refresh of base ortho imagery. The tiling format of the NAIP imagery is based on a 3.75' x 3.75' quarter quadrangle with a 300 pixel buffer on all four sides. NAIP quarter quads are formatted to the UTM coordinate system using the North American Datum of 1983. NAIP imagery may contain as much as 10% cloud cover per tile.

For USDA Farm Service Agency, the 1 meter and 1/2 meter GSD product provides an ortho image base for Common Land Unit boundaries and other data sets. The 1 meter and 1/2 meter NAIP imagery is generally acquired in projects covering full states in cooperation with state government and other federal agencies that use the imagery for a variety of purposes including land use planning and natural resource assessment. The NAIP is also used for disaster response. While suitable for a variety of uses, prior to 2007 the 2 meter GSD NAIP imagery was primarily intended to assess "crop condition and compliance" to USDA farm program conditions. The 2 meter imagery was generally acquired only for agricultural areas within state projects. 11939 Theme ISO 19115 Topic Category imageryBaseMapsEarthCover Theme NOS Data Explorer Topic Category Remotely Sensed Imagery/Photography Theme Aerial Compliance Theme Compliance Theme Digital Ortho rectified Image Theme NAIP Theme Ortho Rectification Theme Quarter Quadrangle Theme farming Spatial Geographic Names Information System 01097 Spatial Geographic Names Information System 3008845 Spatial Geographic Names Information System AL Spatial Geographic Names Information System AL097 Spatial Geographic Names Information System GRAND BAY SW Spatial Geographic Names Information System GRAND BAY SW, NE Spatial Geographic Names Information System MOBILE CO AL FSA Spatial Geographic Names Information System Mobile Office for Coastal Management Charleston SC Data Set Irregular Image (digital) 32-bit pixels, 4 band color(RGBIR) values 0 - 255 None In no event shall the creators, custodians, or distributors of this information be liable for any damages arising out of its use (or the inability to use it).

Unknown NAIP horizontal accuracy specifications have evolved over the life of the program. From 2003 to 2004 the specifications were as follows: 1-meter GSD imagery was to match within 3-meters, and 2-meter GSD to match within 10 meters of reference imagery. For 2005 the 1-meter GSD specification was changed to 5 meters matching the reference imagery. In 2006 a pilot project was performed using true ground specifications rather than reference imagery. All states used the same specifications as 2005 except Utah, which required a match of +/- 6 meters to true ground. In 2007 all specifications were the same as 2006 except Arizona used true ground specifications and all other states used reference imagery. In 2008 and subsequent years no 2-meter GSD imagery was acquired and all specifications were the same as 2007 except approximately half of the states acquired used true ground specifications and the other half used reference imagery. The 2008 states that used absolute ground control where; Indiana, Minnesota, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Texas, Vermont, and Virginia. From 2009 to present all NAIP imagery acquisitions used the +/- 6 meters to ground specification. None NAIP 3.75 minute tile file names are based on the USGS quadrangle naming convention. GRAND BAY SW, NE 2012-05-07 Discrete 2011-08-16 Digital Georectifed Image. | Source Geospatial Form: remote-sensing image | Type of Source Media: UnKnown 1 Digital frames captured with a ZI Intergraph DMC with a footprint of 7680 x 13824 pixels were used to create Digital Orthophoto Quarter Quadrangles. DMC Serial Numbers 001, 013, 033 and 137 installed in a Rockwell 690A Turbo Commander, a Gulfstream 840 Commander, a Rockwell 690B Turbo Commander, and a Piper Cheyenne 1; N771BA, N910FC, N167R, and N400CM were used to fly this area at 28,900'. Calibration reports are on file with the USDA. There are four camera heads which correspond to the bands captured. Their general spectral ranges are Blue: 400nm-580nm; Green: 500nm-650nm; Red: 590nm-675nm; and NIR: 675nm-850nm. 12 micron frames were captured at eight bits with 2.5 - 2.7 foot pixel using Windows Server 2003; ZI Mission Planning 6.2; Intergraph GeoMedia 6.0; DMC Image Analyst 6.2; DMC Post Processing 6.1; ZI Image Viewer 6.1; Microsoft Access; Microsoft Excel; Delorme XMap 4.5 and Adobe PhotoShop. Flights ASL was 28,900 feet. The state was flown in blocks for efficiency of capture and in order to accommodate the different elevations throughout the state. The camera firmware version is 2.1. Flight planning software includes Delorme 4.5; Delorme Photo Flight 2.1.6; ZI Inflight V06.01.20.16; ZI ImageView V06.01.20.16 ; ArcView 3.2; Microsoft Access; and POSAV 2.1. Ground control points were collected by Photo Science crews. External Orientation files created from ABGPS data in Applanix POSPac MMS Version 5.2 and are rectified using ImageStation Project Manager 5.2; Intergraph GeoMedia 6.0; and Intergraph OrthoPro 5.2. Extensive Quality Control checks are performed on the data throughout the production process. Processed RAW Frames are checked for spectral compliance. Rectified frames are checked for spatial accuracy and also spectral compliance. DOQQs are thoroughly checked for spectral and spatial accuracy in Iras/C and Adobe PhotoShop. CCMs are checked for overall spectral compliance and spatial accuracy in ArcGIS. Seamline shapefiles are checked for gaps, slivers, overlaps and multipart features by building a topology in ArcGIS. Ground control points are read off of rectified frames as a double-check and final DOQQs are used to calculate RMSE values in MicroStation and Excel. Frames are rectified with 10 meter NEDs in Intergraph OrthoPro. This surface is checked for errors at the mosaicked DOQQ level. If any areas presented problems, they are noted in a Digital Elevation Model Errors ASCII text file. 2012-05-07T00:00:00 gov.noaa.nmfs.inport:49493 Anne Ball 2017-11-15T15:15:08 Kirk Waters 2024-01-11T12:04:09 2024-01-11 OCM Partners OCMP 1002 Public No No 2018-03-13 1 Year 2019-03-13
