Description:
Abstract:
This is a data table that indentifies individual Connecticut 1990 orthophoto image files necessary to cover each Connecticut town. There is one table record for each orthophoto-town combination. Each table record identifies the orthophoto by orthophoto tile name and Connecticut town by official town number and name.
Purpose:
This is a data table that indentifies individual Connecticut 1990 orthophoto image files necessary to cover each Connecticut town. Use it to determine the names of orthophoto image files that cover one or more town. There is one table record for each orthophoto-town combination. Each table record identifies the orthophoto by orthophoto tile name and Connecticut town by official town number and name.
