This reference contains the imagery data used in the completion of the baseline vegetation inventory project for the NPS park unit. Orthophotos, raw imagery, and scanned aerial photos are common files held here.

A 2-tiered contract for acquiring aerial photography was established with Horizons, Incorporated of Rapid City, South Dakota. This contract specified the acquisition of color infrared (CIR) aerial photography for LAMR and vicinity at two different scales. In addition to the standard 1:12,000 scale photography typically used for photo-interpretation, the project also required 1:40,000 scale photography for the production of orthophotos for the entire area. The project area is covered by 16 flight lines flown southwest to northeast for the 1:12,000 scale photography and 4 flight lines for the 1:40,000 scale photography. A total of 364 CIR photographs were taken at 1:12,000 (1"=1,000') scale and 58 CIR photographs for the 1:40,000 (1" = 3,333') all printed on 9"x 9" paper stock. Forward overlap for all photographs was approximately 55-65% and sidelap between flight lines was approximately 25-35%. All photography was acquired on July 14-16, 2002.
