Abstract:
This dataset is part of a large collection of historical aerial photographs that were orthorectified. The five northernmost photos (1:20,000, 9" x 9" prints) were shot August 16, 1942, and the southernomost (1:30,000), was shot April 26, 1943. This set of photo-scans was acquired, in TIFF format, from:

Lucy Piety lpiety@do.usbr.gov Bureau of Reclamation 303-445-3185

who acquired them from the National Archives and Records Administration. <br /> Other contacts were:

This image dataset was created from 6 individual photos (stored in TIFF format) which were orthorectified, mosaicked, and tiled into rectangular sections approximately 4900+ meters by 7000+ meters. (Sections are roughly the extents of slightly overlapping USGS Digital Ortho Quarter-quads found at <http://duff.ess.washington.edu/data/raster/doqs/>). Data does not necessarily fill each section completely.

Supplemental_Information:
Black and white grayscale scans (11,000px x 11,000px, 33mm x 33mm) were recieved as TIFF files. Performed "Auto Levels" in Photoshop and used Photoshop to change all pixels of value 0,0,0 to 1,1,1 (to avoid dropout of 0,0,0 pixels when turning off display of background value 0 in ArcMap). Resulting TIFF images were then orthorectified using ERDAS Imagine's OrthoBASE module. Registration sources were USGS Digital Ortho Quarter-quads (<http://duff.ess.washington.edu/data/raster/doqs/>) and a USGS 10-meter DEM (<http://duff.ess.washington.edu/data/raster/tenmeter/byquad/>).
