This data set contains imagery from the National Agriculture
Imagery Program (NAIP). The NAIP program is administered by
USDA FSA and has been established to support two main FSA
strategic goals centered on agricultural production.
These are, increase stewardship of America's natural resources
while enhancing the environment, and to ensure commodities
are procured and distributed effectively and efficiently to
increase food security. The NAIP program supports these goals by
acquiring and providing ortho imagery that has been collected
during the agricultural growing season in the U.S. The NAIP
ortho imagery is tailored to meet FSA requirements and is a
fundamental tool used to support FSA farm and conservation
programs. Ortho imagery provides an effective, intuitive
means of communication about farm program administration
between FSA and stakeholders.
New technology and innovation is identified by fostering and
maintaining a relationship with vendors and government
partners, and by keeping pace with the broader geospatial
community. As a result of these efforts the NAIP program
provides three main products: DOQQ tiles,
Compressed County Mosaics (CCM), and Seamline shape files
The Contract specifications for NAIP imagery have changed
over time reflecting agency requirements and improving
technologies. These changes include image resolution,
horizontal accuracy, coverage area, and number of bands.
In general, flying seasons are established by FSA and are
targeted for peak crop growing conditions. The NAIP
acquisition cycle is based on a minimum 3 year refresh of base
ortho imagery. The tiling format of the NAIP imagery is based
on a 3.75' x 3.75' quarter quadrangle with a 300 pixel buffer
on all four sides. NAIP quarter quads are formatted to the UTM
coordinate system using the North American Datum of 1983.
NAIP imagery may contain as much as 10% cloud cover per tile.

NAIP imagery is available for distribution within 60 days
of the end of a flying season and is intended to provide current
information of agricultural conditions in support of USDA farm
programs. For USDA Farm Service Agency, the 1 meter and 1/2 meter
GSD product provides an ortho image base for Common Land Unit
boundaries and other data sets. The 1 meter and 1/2 meter NAIP
imagery is generally acquired in projects covering full states in
cooperation with state government and other federal agencies that
use the imagery for a variety of purposes including land use
planning and natural resource assessment. The NAIP is also used
for disaster response. While suitable for a variety of uses,
prior to 2007 the 2 meter GSD NAIP imagery was primarily intended
to assess "crop condition and compliance" to USDA farm program
conditions. The 2 meter imagery was generally acquired only
for agricultural areas within state projects.

Horizontal Positional Accuracy
NAIP horizontal accuracy specifications have evolved over
the life of the program. From 2003 to 2004 the
specifications were as follows: 1-meter GSD imagery was
to match within 3-meters, and 2-meter GSD to match within 10
meters of reference imagery. For 2005 the 1-meter GSD
specification was changed to 5 meters matching the reference
imagery. In 2006 a pilot project was performed using true
ground specifications rather than reference imagery. All
states used the same specifications as 2005 except Utah,
which required a match of +/- 6 meters to true ground.
In 2007 all specifications were the same as 2006 except
Arizona used true ground specifications and all other states
used reference imagery. In 2008 and subsequent years
no 2-meter GSD imagery was acquired and all specifications
were the same as 2007 except approximately half of the
states acquired used true ground specifications and the
other half used reference imagery. The 2008 states that
used absolute ground control where; Indiana, Minnesota,
New Hampshire, North Carolina, Texas, Vermont, and Virginia.
From 2009 to present all NAIP imagery acquisitions used
the +/- 6 meters to ground specification.

DOQQ Production Process Description
USDA FSA APFO NAIP Program 2015
State: Minnesota
Digital imagery was collected at a nominal GSD of 40cm
using eight Cessna 441 aircraft and two Beechcraft
King Air flying at an average flight height of 5000m
AGL. All aircraft flew with Leica Geosystem's
ADS100/SH100 digital sensors with firmware 4.42. Each
sensor collected 12 image bands Red,Green,Blue and
Near-infrared at each of three look angles; Backward
19 degrees, Forward 26 degrees and Nadir. The Nadir
Green band was collected in high resolution mode
effectively doubling the resolution for that band.
The ADS100 spectral ranges are; Red 619-651nm,Green
525-585nm,Blue 435-495nm and Near-infrared at 808-882nm.
The CCD arrays have a pixel size of 5.0 microns in
a 20000x1 format at nadir; a 18000x1 format at the
backward look angle and a 16000x1 format at the
forward look angle. The CCD's have a dynamic range of
72db and the A/D converters have a resolution of 14bits.
The ADS is a push-broom sensor and the ground footprint
of the imagery at a nominal GSD of 40cm is
approximately 8km wide by the length flightline.
The maximum flightline length is limited to approximately
240km. The factory calibrations and IMU alignments for
each sensor (Serial Numbers: 10511,10512,10514,10519,
10527,10528,10531,10534,10540,10554) were tested and
verified by in-situ test flights before the start of
the project. The Leica MissionPro Flight Planning
Software is used to develop the flight acquisition plans.
Flight acquisition sub blocks are designed first to
define the GNSS base station logistics, and to break
the project up into manageable acquisition units. The
flight acquisition sub blocks are designed based on
the specified acquisition season, native UTM zone of
the DOQQs, flight line length limitations (to ensure
sufficient performance of the IMU solution) as well
as air traffic restrictions in the area. Once the sub
blocks have been delineated they are brought into
MissionPro for flight line design. The design
parameters used in MissionPro will be 27 to 35% lateral
overlap and 40cm resolution. The flight lines
have been designed with a north/south orientation.
The design takes into account the latitude of the
state, which affects line spacing due to convergence
as well as the terrain. SRTM elevation data is
used in the MissionPro design to ensure the 50cm
GSD is achieved over all types of terrain. The raw
data was downloaded from the sensors after each
flight using Leica XPro software. The imagery was
then georeferenced using the 200Hz GPS/INS data
creating an exterior orientation for each scan line
(x/y/z/o/p/k). Leica Xpro APM software was used to
automatically generate tiepoint measurements between
the forward 26 degree, nadir and backward 19 degree look
angles for each line and to tie all flight lines together.
The resulting point data and exterior orientation data
were used to perform a full bundle adjustment using ORIMA
software. Blunders were removed, and additional tie points
measured in weak areas to ensure a robust solution.
Once the point data was clean and point coverage was
acceptable, photo-identifiable GPS-surveyed ground
control points were introduced into the block
adjustment. The bundle adjustment process produces
revised exterior orientation data for the sensor with
GPS/INS, datum, and sensor calibration errors modeled
and removed. Using the revised exterior orientation
from the bundle adjustment, orthorectified image
strips were created with Xpro software and the June
2015 USGS 10m NED DEM. The Xpro orthorectification
software applies an atmospheric-BRDF radiometric
correction to the imagery. This correction compensates
for atmospheric absorption, solar illumination angle
and bi-directional reflectance. The orthorectified
strips were then overlaid with each other and the
ground control to check accuracy. Once the accuracy of
the orthorectified image strips were validated the
strips were then imported into Inpho's OrthoVista 6.0.1
