2006 Statewide Imagery

Dataset Basics

Due to an early spring, the 2005 IndianaMap Orthophotography Project contains images with leaf-on conditions. To correct this, EarthData reflew the areas with heavy leaves. The 2006 orthophotography is not a state-wide dataset but contains imagery and elevation for those counties that were affected by the leaf-on conditions during 2005.

Available Datasets

2006 Statewide Orthophotography (Natural Color GeoTIFF)

RGB orthophotos from the 2006 phase of the state orthoimagery project, which reimaged areas with heavy leaf cover during the 2005 imaging. The images are grouped into archives by quadrangles.

2006 Statewide Orthophotography (Natural Color MrSID)

MrSID versions of the natural color images from the 2006 phase of the state orthoimagery project, which reimaged areas with heavy leaf cover during the 2005 imaging. The images are grouped into archives by quadrangles.

2006 Statewide Orthophotography (Natural Color Quarter Quad GeoTIFF)

Natural color quarter quadrangles from the 2006 phase of the state orthoimagery project, which reimaged areas with heavy leaf cover during the 2005 imaging. The GeoTIFF images are grouped into archives by quadrangles.

2006 Statewide Orthophotography (Natural Color Quarter Quad MrSID)

MrSID versions of the natural color quarter quadrangles from the 2006 phase of the state orthoimagery project, which reimaged areas with heavy leaf cover during the 2005 imaging. The images are grouped into archives by quadrangles.

2006 Statewide Orthophotography (Color-Infrared Quarter Quad GeoTIFF)

Color-infrared orthophotos from the 2006 phase of the state orthoimagery project, which reimaged areas with heavy leaf cover during the 2005 imaging. The images are grouped into archives by quadrangles.

2006 Statewide Orthophotography (Color-Infrared Quarter Quad MrSID)

MrSID versions of the color infrared quarter quadrangles from the 2006 phase of the state orthoimagery project, which reimaged areas with heavy leaf cover during the 2005 imaging. The images are grouped into archives by quadrangles.

2006 Statewide Orthophotography (Natural Color MrSID Mosaics)

MrSID Mosaics from the 2006 phase of the state orthoimagery project, which covers areas flooded during the 2005 imaging project. This dataset includes mosaics for two counties and nineteen townships.

Natural Color

The Indiana 2006 digital orthophotography reflight was collected during February and March leaf-off conditions at a minimum resolution of 1-foot. Twenty-eight 1-foot counties have select areas involved in reflights. The involved counties are Adams, Brown, Clark, Crawford, Daviess, Greene, Harrison, Hendricks, Huntington, Jackson, Jasper, Lawrence, Morgan, Newton, Noble, Orange, Owen, Pike, Porter, Posey, Spencer, St. Joseph, Wabash, Warrick, Wells and White. The following eleven 6-in resolution counties were involved: Dubois, Elkhart, Floyd, Kosciusko, Lake, Marion, Monroe, Perry, Steuben, Tippecanoe, and Vanderburgh. EarthData reflew Dubois and Perry Counties in their entirety. Indiana University created MrSID 2006 countywide mosaics for only these two counties.
