Dataset Identification:

Resource Abstract:
This data set contains imagery from the National Agriculture Imagery Program (NAIP). These data are digital aerial photos, at one meter resolution, of the entire state of Montana, taken in the year 2013. The data are available from the State Library in three different formats: The most accessible format is a downloadable collection of 698 compressed natural-color MrSID images, each 24 kilometers square. These images are in Montana State Plane coordinates, units meters. The web page for accessing these images is http://mslapps.mt.gov/Geographic_Information/Data/Aerial_Photos/naip_2013_default.aspx. The data are also downloadable as a collection of 56 compressed county mosaic (CCM) natural color MrSID images. These data are in UTM coordinates. The FTP folder containing these images is ftp://ftp.geoinfo.msl.mt.gov/Data/Spatial/MSDI/Imagery/2013_NAIP/UTM_County_Mosaics. The data are available from the State Library as a collection 11,776 4-band (near infrared, red, green and blue) TIFF images in UTM coordinates. Each image is about 170 megabytes. The tiling format of the TIFF imagery is based on 3.75 x 3.75 minute quarter-quadrangles with a 300 pixel buffer on all four sides. An ESRI shapefile index showing the dates and times the images were acquired is available at ftp://ftp.geoinfo.msl.mt.gov/Data/Spatial/MSDI/Imagery/2013_NAIP/NAIP_2013_Dates.zip. An ESRI shapefile index showing the extent of the individual TIFF image files is available at ftp://ftp.geoinfo.msl.mt.gov/Data/Spatial/MSDI/Imagery/2013_NAIP/NAIP_2013_tiff_index.zip. To order TIFF images from the State Library, select the quadrangles you want from the tiff index shapefile and send them to the Library, along with a storage device of sufficient size to hold them and return postage for the device.
