    • Imagery data for the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Petrified Forest National Park

    Metadata Updated: November 14, 2025

    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.

    The SCPN acquired new stereo aerial photography of PEFO through the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Aerial Photography Field Office (APFO). APFO subcontractor Photo Flight Geomatics, of Tucson, Arizona, acquired the imagery on September 13, 14, 17, and 19 of 2003; an additional flight was made on June 17, 2004 to cover areas that were missed in 2003. The imagery was taken in true color film at a scale of 1:6,000, with 20–40% sidelap and 50–60% overlap. The APFO provided two sets of 9 × 9-in contact prints to the SCPN. The NAU and NPS mapping team used the images for reference during polygon delineation and labeling. Upon project completion, one set of contact prints will reside at PEFO and one at the SCPN.
