Lower Rio Puerco 1950s georeferenced aerial photographs

Metadata Updated: July 6, 2024

The 1950s images were downloaded from Earth Explorer as medium-resolution scans of aerial photographs, with pixel size ranging from 1.33 to 2.32 m. Original photo scales were 1:54,000 or 1:20,000. (See Source Citation below.) I registered and rectified these images using identifiable common points from 1996 DOQQs. Images with filenames beginning "r37" were acquired 11-29-1953. Images with filenames beginning "r43" were acquired 01-31-1954. Image r1954r49_6786.tif was acquired 02-03-1954. Remaining images have the date of acquisition in the filename, starting with the format "ryymmdd...". Data derived from features mapped from the 1950s images were presented in: Friedman, J.M., Vincent, K.R., Griffin, E.R., Scott, M.L., Shafroth, P.B., and Auble, G.T., 2015, Processes of arroyo filling in northern New Mexico, USA, GSA Bulletin, 127(3/4), 621-640. doi: 10.1130/B31046.1
