Imagery data for the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Cape Cod National Seashore
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.
Cape Cod National Seashore contracted the James Sewall Company (Old Town, Maine) for fall “leaf-on” color infrared aerial photography in the fall of 2000. A flight plan chosen was identical to one used previously by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection Wetlands Program to produce photos at a scale of 1:12000. The plan allowed for the standard 60% overlap between frames and 30% overlap between flight lines resulting in stereo photo pairs for interpretation. Color IR (infrared) photography was chosen to maximize distinctions between green wavelengths in upland vegetation. Aerial photography was completed for the entire flight plan on October 4, 2000 and delivered as both positive transparencies and prints.
