City, New York as part of the contract to provide new natural
color digital aerial imagery with airborne GPS-IMU control and
ground surveyed control to develop and support 4 band (RGBIR) 8
bit 6 inch pixel resolution for selective areas within the New
York City's five bouroughs. Imagery acquisition and flight lines
were planned and acquired for the NYC STO area based upon the
project specifications of selective true orthos using a diagonal
orientation with a forward overlap of 80 percent and a flight line
sidelap of 80 percent. The area was planned and flown with
Axis Ultracam Eagle 100mm focal length digital mapping camera
UC-E-1-80510607-f100 equipped with flight navigation
systems and airborne GPS and inertial measurement units flown at
an approximate altitude of 9690' above mean ground elevation. An
average image footprint of 20010' x 13080' size image was
captured; thereby capturing an average image footprint of 10005'
wide by 6540' inline for a six inch pixel resolution. A total of
90 flight lines and 7750 exposures were captured for the NYC STO
area region. Imagery was captured between April 14th and May
2nd, 2018, with a sun angle exceeding 30 degrees. For the Aerotriangulation 
Automatic Point Measurement (APM)
was run on the images to measure terrain points to tie the images
together. The imagery was then used in the AT process in UltraMap 
where tie point measurement was performed and
independent ground control points and airborne GPS were introduced
to further refine the data. Final EO data was derived using BINGO AT software using the
Microsoft UltraMap mapping platform. 
The UltraMap Ortho module produced a Digital Surface Model (DSM)
at a .5' resolution of the entire NYC STO area. The DSM data was then 
applied in the orthorectification process to produce 4-band 
RGB-IR digital orthoimages free of distortion and lean on the selective 
true buildings. All orthorectified images were reviewed for consistency with project
requirements before the mosaicking and tiling process. Bridge
distortions and other errors were corrected at this stage. As part
of the mosaicking and tiling process in UltraMap, all images 
were adjusted for color and radiometric differences for the entire image dataset. 
The individual tiles produced were then inspected in a
final QA/QC process for overall image quality with all undesirable
artifacts and errors corrected before delivery. The end product
for New York City was 2049 seamless 8-bit 4-band RGB-IR image
tiles, 2500 by 2500 feet wide in GeoTIFF/TFW format. Imagery was
also delivered in JP2/J2W format at a 10:1 compression ratio with
ESRI AUX and MapInfo TAB files.</procdesc><procdate>201808</procdate><srcprod>Aerial Imagery</srcprod><proccont><cntinfo><cntperp><cntper>Brian Tolley</cntper><cntorg>Axis Geospatial, LLC</cntorg></cntperp><cntpos>Quality Manager</cntpos><cntaddr><addrtype>mailing and physical address</addrtype><address>28640 Mary's Court, Suite 200</address><city>Easton</city><state>Maryland</state><postal>21601</postal><country>USA</country></cntaddr><cntvoice>410-822-1441</cntvoice><cntemail>btolley@axisgeospatial.com</cntemail><hours>9am - 5pm Eastern Time</hours></cntinfo></proccont></procstep></lineage><cloud>&lt;1%</cloud></dataqual><spdoinfo><direct>Raster</direct><rastinfo></rastinfo></spdoinfo><spref><horizsys><planar><mapproj><mapprojn>Transverse Mercator</mapprojn><transmer><sfctrmer>0.999375</sfctrmer><longcm>-76.583333333333333333</longcm><latprjo>40.0</latprjo><feast>249999.9998983998</feast><fnorth>0.000000</fnorth></transmer></mapproj><planci><plance>coordinate pair</plance><coordrep><absres>0.000000</absres><ordres>0.000000</ordres></coordrep><plandu>survey feet</plandu></planci></planar><geodetic><horizdn>D_North_American_1983</horizdn><ellips>Geodetic Reference System 80</ellips><semiaxis>6378137.000000</semiaxis><denflat>298.257222</denflat></geodetic></horizsys></spref><eainfo></eainfo><distinfo><resdesc>Downloadable Data</resdesc><stdorder><digform><digtinfo><transize>0.004</transize></digtinfo></digform></stdorder></distinfo><metainfo><metd>20180912</metd><metc><cntinfo><cntperp><cntper>Tim Ruhren</cntper><cntorg>NYS ITS GIS Program Office</cntorg></cntperp><cntpos>NYS GIS Clearinghouse</cntpos><cntaddr><addrtype>mailing and physical address</addrtype><address>10B Airline Drive</address><city>Albany</city><state>New York</state><postal>12235</postal><country>USA</country></cntaddr><cntvoice>518-242-5061</cntvoice><cntemail>tim.ruhren@its.ny.gov</cntemail></cntinfo></metc><metstdn>FGDC Content Standards for Digital Geospatial Metadata</metstdn><metstdv>FGDC-STD-001-1998</metstdv><mettc>local time</mettc></metainfo></metadata>
