These data depict geographic features on the surface of the earth. They were created primarily as a visual aid for urban and county planning. They also provides easily accessible geospatial data which is readily available to enhance the capability of Federal, State, and local emergency responders, as well as plan for homeland security efforts.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. The design accuracy is estimated not to exceed 3-meter diagonal RMSE (2.12m RMSE in X or Y).The source data for this service are available for download from USGS EarthExplorer. Individual image tiles can be downloaded using the Idaho Aerial Imagery Explorer.These data can be bulk downloaded from a web accessible folder.  Source Metadata From USGS EarthExplorer:Beginning Date: 2003/04/01Ending Date: 2003/04/01EPSG: 26911Map Projection Description: NAD83 / UTM zone 11NState/Province/Country: IDDatum: NAD83Dataset: 200304_boise_id_0x3000m_utm_clrProjection Zone: 11Sensor: UNKNOWNSensor Type: ColorNumber of Bands: 3Vendor: BERGMAN_PHOTOGRAPHIC_SEVICESResolution: 0.3Units of Resolution: METERAgency: COMPASSUsers should be aware that temporal changes may have occurred since these data were collected and that some parts of these data may no longer represent actual surface conditions.
