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. Purpose: 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.

Completeness_Report: None Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report: 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.

Process_Step: Process_Description: CCM Production Process Description USDA FSA APFO NAIP Program 2014 State: Illinois The imagery was collected using the following digital sensors: Microsoft UltraCam Eagle (Serial Number 00817310) Microsoft UltraCam Eagle (Serial Number 50617043) with an 80mm lens and TrackAir firmware 4.08. Cameras are calibrated radiometrically and geometrically by the manufacturer and are all certified by the USGS. Collection was performed using a combination of the following twin-engine aircraft: Turbines flying at 28,000 ft above mean terrain (tail numbers: C441 N87WS, C441 N441MD) With these flying heights, there is a planned 30% sidelap and a 60% forward overlap. The collected data nominal ground sampling distance of 0.50 meters at 28,000. Based-upon the CCD Array configuration present in the UltraCam Eagle digital sensor, imagery for each frame line is 20,010 by 13,080 pixels. Red, Green, Blue, Near-Infrared and Panchromatic image bands were collected. The UCE has the following band specifications: Pan 380-725 Red 585-740 Green 485-720 Blue 395-605 Near Infrared 685-1000 all values are in nanometers Collected data was downloaded to portable hard drives and shipped to the processing facility daily. Raw flight data was extracted from external data drives using UltraMap software. Airborne GPS / IMU data was post-processed using POSMMS software and reviewed to ensure sufficient accuracy for project requirements. Using OrthoPro software, planar rectified images were generated from the collected data for use in image quality review. The planar rectified images were generated at five meter resolution using a two standard deviation histogram stretch. Factors considered during this review included but were not limited to the presence of smoke and/or cloud cover, contrails, light conditions, sun glint and any sensor or hardware-related issues that potentially could result in faulty data. When necessary, image strips identified as not meeting image quality specifications were re-flown to obtain suitable imagery. External Orientation (EO) values were calculated from airborne trajectory data and exposure timing data in Applanix POSMMS. Calculated EO's were applied to image frames in Intergraph GeoMedia OrthoPro, and the oriented image frames were orthorectified to the USGS 10-meter NED. Positional accuracy was reviewed in the rectified imagery by visually verifying the horizontal positioning of the known photo-identifiable survey locations using ArcGIS software. The red, green, blue, and infrared bands were combined to generate a final ortho-rectified image strip. The UltraCam sensor collects twelve bit image data which requires radiometric adjustment for output in standard eight bit image channels. The ortho-rectified image strips were produced with the full 12 bit data range, allowing radiometric adjustment to 8 bit range to be performed on a strip by strip basis during the final mosaicking steps. The 12 bit data range was adjusted for display in standard eight bit image channels by defining a piecewise histogram stretch using UltraMap Radiometry software. A constant stretch was defined for each image collection period, and then per image adjustments were made as needed to account for changes in sun angle and azimuth during the collection period. Per mission were also made to match mission statistics as closely as possible to APFO specified histogram metrics and color balance requirements. Automated balancing algorithms were applied to account for image hotspots as a final step before the conversion to 8 bit data range. The imagery was mosaicked using automatic seam line generation in Intergraph GeoMedia OrthoPro.
