Description

This map is a locally-hosted version of the NJGIN 2020 natural color orthophotography. The coverage area of this map is the same as the NJGIN original, however it was re-sampled at 4 feet (1.2m) per pixel from the original 1 foot (30 cm) resolution. The original multi-spectral digital orthophotography was produced with a 1 foot pixel resolution for the entire state, totaling 8,251 square miles.

Aerial imagery was acquired using a UltraCam Eagle M1 camera with a flight design that included a total of 43 flight lines. Aerial imagery was supplemented with the simultaneous acquisition of airborne GPS/IMU data, which captured the ground coordinate for the nadir point of each photograph. Aerial imagery was exposed at an altitude of 15,000 - 15,260 feet above mean terrain.
