Description:
Abstract:
This metadata record describes the 100 scale 0.5' pixel natural color orthophotography produced in 2005 by Kucera International Inc. for Scott County, IA. The bounding coordinates are for all imagery of this scale within the project area, not an individual image tile.
Purpose:
An orthophoto is a geometrically accurate photographic record of landscape conditions at the time of the corresponding aerial photography. As such, the orthophoto is useful for a variety of applications, such as environmental monitoring, facility engineering/maintenance, city/county planning, property line review, etc. It can be used alone or as a raster basemap for corresponding vector line mapping.
Supplemental_Information:
Project performed in conjunction with multi-county, multi-city aerial base mapping of IA-IL Bi-State Commission Region.

Data_Quality_Information:
Logical_Consistency_Report:
Compliance with the accuracy standard was ensured by the placement of GPS ground control prior to the acquisition of aerial imagery. The following checks were performed:
1. The airborne GPS/INS data stream was validated and solved in forward and reverse using Applanix's POSPAC software. The control and imagery were validated in the aerotriangulation bundle adjustment process using Inpho's MatchAT software. The residuals of the adjustment met the required standards with the results fully outlined in an AT report supplied to Scott County.
2. Digital orthophotography was validated through a visual inspection of control points, edge matching and general image quality.
Completeness_Report:
The following methods were used to ensure image quality:
1. Use of targeted ground control during image acquisition.
2. Use of GPS/INS during image acquisition.
3. Checking of controls against ortho product.
4. Post ortho accuracy approval checks for overall image quality (tone, color balance, etc.).
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
This image complies with NSSDA standards. It has been tested at 95% confidence level at 100 scale to have an RMS horizontal positional displacement within 3 feet of well defined ground features in obscured areas. Does not apply to vertical surface features, such as structures, appearing in the digital orthophotography due to inherent lean. Tested horizontal RMSE on controls within the project area is 1'.
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy:
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report: There is no vertical component for orthos.

Source_Contribution:
Targeted ground control is used to create a digital control file and control report as well as QC check of ortho accuracy. Predefined points (usually NGS) within the county are targeted, making the points visible in the photography. These points along with their precise coordinates are used in the AT process and to check the horizontal accuracy of the resulting orthophotos.

The tile definition contains the name and bounding coordinates for each tile in the image index and is used to cut orthorectified imagery into manageable, usable images. Each tile is 1500 X 1500 feet. It was provided to Kucera by Bi-State Regional Commission in vector format and references Iowa South State Plane coordinates. Kucera converted to an ASCII text file for use in image processing software.

Process_Step:
Process_Description:
At selected locations throughout the site, accurate GPS coordinates and elevations are surveyed and the points are marked with targets which will be visible in the aerial photography.
Source_Used_Citation_Abbreviation: None
Process_Date: 2005
Source_Produced_Citation_Abbreviation: CONT
Process_Step:
Process_Description:
New color aerial photography of the site is acquired using USGS calibrated/approved aerial camera systems mounted in twin-engine aircrafts. Film type used was AGFA Color X100. Camera information:

1. Zeiss RMK Top 15, serial no. 142832, focal length of 153.850mm, AWAR 101, last calibrated in June 2003.
2. Zeiss RMK Top 15, serial no. 145860, focal length of 152.483mm, AWAR 101, last calibrated in Sept. 2003.

During the aerial photography, the XYZ position of the camera center (principal point) and angular orientation of the aerial camera at the instant of each exposure is accurately measured using an airborne GPS/IMU system interfaced with the aerial camera. GPS base-station receivers are operated on the ground over known site points during the flyover to provide data necessary to reference the aerial camera position and orientation measurements to the terrain coordinate system.

Process_Step:
Process_Description:
Using automatic image processing software, blocks of rectified digital images are mosaicked together, radiometrically adjusted (tone balanced) across the images to achieve a generally seamless appearance, and cut into individual tiled images. The processing was completed using Stellacore Orthovista.
