Title:
2.5-Meter Digital Orthoimage Series of Idaho Generated from SPOT Satellite Imagery (30 x 30 Minute Tiles, 1:24,000-scale)
Abstract:
This is a series-level metadata record describing all 137 1:24,000-scale, 2.5-meter digital orthoimage tiles of Idaho generated from SPOT imagery that are available through INSIDE Idaho. The USA Select product is a statewide panchromatic tonal balanced, 30-minute x 30-minute SPOTView product designed to be load-n-go into GIS and image processing systems. The source imagery is SPOT PAN 2.5-meter data. The most current imagery was preferred. Fall/Winter/Spring (leaf-off) scenes were preferred, but summer (leaf-on) imagery was used if scene gaps were present.
The Idaho Department of Adminstration coordinated the purchase of these data among numerous entities in Idaho in 2004. The bounding coordinates are not specific to individual tiles but rather to the entire state.
This imagery is useful as a layer of a geographic information system and as a tool for development and revision of GIS databases. These black and white images support base mapping scales of approximately 1:24,000.
