Indiana Orthophotography

This layer represents the grids for available orthophotography data from the State of Indiana.  Users will have access to this layer in the side pane when a Location of Interest (LOI) is placed near available records.  The grid polygons are sourced from the Indiana Spatial Data Portal and attributed with URLs linking to the ECW and GEOTIFF files within the specific tile.  When the user selects an index polygon, the pop-up bubble will show all available data with Index ID, County, Year, Resolution, ECW Link, and TIF Link.

“The State of Indiana is completing a 3-year program to acquire orthophotography (RGBI) and LiDAR/elevation data for the entire state of Indiana. Counties may elect to buy-up from 1 foot resolution, 4-band orthophotography to 6-inch or 3-inch resolution imagery. The project is divided into three acquisition areas: center (2011), east (2012), and west (2013). The State's vendor, Woolpert, acquired 28 of the center counties in 2011 and 34 of the east counties in 2012. For the 2013 acquisition year, in addition to 6 of the 30 west counties buying up to 6-inch imagery, the Cities of Vincennes and Bicknell purchased 6-inch orthophotography, and the City of Huntington and Purdue University purchased 3-inch orthophotography.”
