2010 UMRS Color Infrared Aerial Photo Mosaic - Mississippi River, Pool 7

The Upper Mississippi River Restoration-Environmental Management Program (UMRR-EMP) partnered with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) Region 3 to collect 2010 digital color infrared (CIR) aerial photography of Pools 1-13, Upper Mississippi River and Pools Alton–Marseilles, Illinois River at 8”/pixel and 16”/pixel respectively using a mapping-grade Applanix DSS439 digital aerial camera. The photography shall be at a minimum accuracy of 5-10 meters and allow for the development of orthorectified photo mosaics by U.S. Geological Survey – Upper Midwest Environmental Sciences Center (USGS-UMESC) for all or portions of the coverage area. The flights occurred during times of peak vegetation biomass, typically from late August through early September. The primary use of this photography is for the development of Land Cover / Land Use (LCU) databases of the UMRS by the USGS-UMESC. The photography and LCU databases are used in support of all stages of HREP project development and monitoring. In addition, the photography and maps are used for research and monitoring efforts conducted by the LTRM component in support of UMRR-EMP. The imagery is served over the internet as orthorectified pool mosaics by USGS-UMESC.

密西西比河上游修复-环境管理计划（UMRR-EMP）与美国鱼类及野生动物管理局（USFWS）第三大区合作，于2010年采用测绘级Applanix DSS439数码航空相机，分别以8英寸/像素、16英寸/像素的分辨率，采集了密西西比河上游1-13号河段以及伊利诺伊河奥尔顿-马赛利斯河段的数码彩色红外（CIR）航空摄影数据。该航空摄影数据的定位精度最低可达5-10米，可支持美国地质调查局中西部环境科学中心（USGS-UMESC）针对覆盖全域或部分区域制作正射校正影像镶嵌图。航空拍摄作业均安排在植被生物量峰值期进行，通常为8月下旬至9月上旬。该航空摄影数据的核心用途为供美国地质调查局中西部环境科学中心（USGS-UMESC）构建密西西比河上游系统（UMRS）的土地覆盖/土地利用（LCU）数据库。该航空摄影数据与土地覆盖/土地利用数据库可用于支撑HREP项目全周期的开发与监测工作。此外，该航空摄影数据及配套地图还可用于长期资源监测（LTRM）团队为支撑UMRR-EMP所开展的各项研究与监测工作。美国地质调查局中西部环境科学中心（USGS-UMESC）将该影像以正射校正河段镶嵌图的形式通过互联网对外发布。
