ORTHO_BP data were purchased to provide updated orthoimagery in the Baxter State Park region, an area which would otherwise not be covered under the GeoLibrary Board orthoimagery purchase. The imagery, at 60cm resolution and 2.3m RMS horizontal accuracy, are useful in many large-scale mapping applications for the park area.
ORTHO_BP contains high resolution QuickBird orthorectified satellite imagery from Digital Globe. The data are presented in 4 bands with pixel resolution of 60cm and horizontal accuracy of 2.3m.
Digital Globe, IAGT.

ORTHO_BP imagery covers all of Baxter State Park plus a roughly 700-meter boundary. It was collected by the QuickBird satellite sensor Oct 3, 2004 at approximately 3:28PM local time. Pixel resolution is 60cm with horizontal RMS error of about 2.3m.
The imagery collection is complete in that the entire area was imaged according to specifications.
Orthorectification was completed using 11 ground control points and 86 tie-points, using the National Elevation Dataset as the terrain reference. This resulted in imagery with a combined RMS error of 2.3m. The accuracy and quality of the Digital Globe orthoimagery meets National Map Accuracy Standards at 1:3,600 scale, plus/minus 3 meters or 10 feet, and is accurate for mapping applications at 1" = 300'.

The ArcSDE in Oracle version of ORTHO_BP is a seamless mosaic of QuickBird orthoimagery. QuickBird images were collected from the QuickBird satellite sensor at an altitude of 480km.
Ortho-rectification was performed by Digital Globe, using the National Elevation Dataset, a set of 11 ground control points, and 86 tie-points from imagery.

The Maine Office of GIS and the GeoLibrary Board provide web mapping services to distribute aerial photos and other digital data. A WMS is not a web application which you can see in a web browser; rather, it requires you to add the service to a GIS software application.
