Abstract:
This image was aquired by Space Imaging LLC under contract with Skagit County. The DAIS camera sensor is the same sensor found on the Ikonus satellite. Imagery is multispectral with four bands of data at 1 meter resolution.
Purpose: This image is best suited for background image. Variation in radiance through out the image makes it difficult to use for classification.
Supplemental Information: This image data has been compressed and values changed to create a visually appealing picture. Raw data is 16-bit data and is 14 gb in size. Compressed data is in Mr.Sid format and is 300mb in size.
