USGS High Resolution Orthoimagery for Franklin County, Kentucky: 16SFH825195_201203_0x1500m_4B_1
Dataset Identification:
Resource Abstract:
"Franklin County 6 inch aerial photography was collected for Project Area 1 of Kentucky's Aerial Photography and Elevation
Data program (KYAPED), Aerial photography related to this data was captured in late winter and early spring of 2012 as part
of a collaborative effort among federal, state and local government agencies as well as educational entities in Kentucky."
An orthoimage is remotely sensed image data in which displacement of features in the image caused by terrain relief and sensor
orientation have been mathematically removed. Orthoimagery combines the image characteristics of a photograph with the geometric
qualities of a map. There is no image overlap between adjacent files. Data received at Earth Resources Observation and Science
Center (Earth Resources Observation and Science Center (EROS)) were reprojected from: Projection: NAD_1983_StatePlane_Kentucky_FIPS_1600_Feet
Resolution: 6 inch Type: 4 Band to: Standard Product Projection: NAD_1983_UTM_Zone_16N Standard Product Resolution: 0.1500
m Rows: 10000 Columns: 10000 and resampled to align to the U.S. National Grid (USNG) using The National Map. The naming convention
is based on the U.S. National Grid (USNG), taking the coordinates of the SW corner of the orthoimage. The metadata were imported
and updated for display through The National Map at http://nationalmap.gov/viewer.html Chip-level metadata are provided in
HTML and XML format. Data were compressed utilizing IAS software. The compression was JPEG2000 Lossy Compressed. The file
format created was .jp2.

purpose:
"Imagery was captured for Franklin County, as part of Aerial Photography acquisition in Project Area 1 of Kentucky's Aerial
Photography and Elevation Data program (KYAPED)" A digital orthoimage is a geometrically accurate photographic record of landscape
conditions at the time of the corresponding aerial photography. As such, High Resolution Orthoimagery is useful for a variety
of applications, such as environmental monitoring, facility engineering/maintenance, city/county planning, property line review,
etc. The digital orthoimage can be used alone or as a raster basemap for corresponding vector line mapping. The detailed focus
of High Resolution Orthoimagery provides emergency responders critical information in determining the best evacuation routes,
alternative routes and safe access to aid. High Resolution Orthoimagery assists law enforcement personnel in determining the
best locations to place surveillance cameras in high-traffic urban areas and popular attractions. The data assists Federal,
State and local emergency responders in planning for homeland security efforts. This data also supports The National Map.

name Of Measure Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report
evaluation Method Description
The relative accuracy is assembled by comparing rectified images generated from adjacent strips of imagery. The absolute accuracy
is assessed by measuring the ground control points in the rectified image against the actual surveyed co-ordinate position.
The testing is for overall accuracy. This data has been produced to be fully compliant with the National Map Accuracy Standards
(NMAS) for mapping at this scale.
