Kite Aerial Photography NIMS grid Imnavait, Alaska 2012

Aerial photographs of the Networked Info-Mechanical System (NIMS) grid in Imnavait, Alaska were taken using a rig and kite system. As part of the NIMS grid, white boards were nailed into the tundra to act as Ground Control Points (GCPs). The purpose of these boards was to facilitate the visibility of the grid from the aerial photographs, as well as to facilitate georeferencing using ArcMap Geographic Information System (GIS). Most of the pictures taken are high resolution although only a few are lacking good quality. The photographs are arranged according to flight date. The kite was flown once on July 28th of summer 2012.
