Digital Orthophotos of Washington State
An orthophoto is an aerial photograph that has been corrected for parallax
and camera tilt. Most digital orthophotos are georeferenced; they know
where they lie on the face of the earth. Although many other programs
can display digital orthophotos, GIS software will automatically
mosaic photos of adjacent
areas, and can overlay other geographic information. If you do not have
GIS software, you might try ESRI's
arcexplorer.
File sizes can be large, especially among those of us who spurn lossy compression.
Some can also be used through a
server which
is accessible
only from the University of Washington campus.

We hope to have a public data server within months.
