Abstract:
Connecticut 2000 Aerial Photo Center Point Index is the photo center index for a 2000 aerial survey of Connecticut that produced a complete set of non-rectified prints used for stereoscopic viewing. There is a point feature class that defines the center point for each aerial photo. Attributes for each point feature include flight line and photo number. Orthorectified photos were not produced as a result of this 2000 aerial survey.
Purpose:
This is the photo center index for a Connectictu aerial survey in 2000 of non-rectified prints used for stereoscopic viewing. Use this index to identifiy flight line and photo numbers.
