Change history

5/15/2010

The database size was too large to mosaic as a single sid even at high compression.

The data was resampled to 6 inch and a mosaic was also created for the affected Northwest Zone tile (35x compression) .

A key region mosaic was created at 50x compression.

Even though the key region mosaic covers that same area as the zone mosaic, it provides the complete dataset in a smaller file footprint.

3/1/2010

Data acquired from eCityGov Alliance in March 2010 via portable harddrive and DVD.

Data was copied to workspace.

Compressed MrSid versions (20x) were created for each tile for preliminary QA, horizontal accuracy analysis, and completion of extent shapefile.

No spatial index was delivered with the data.

A python routine was created to create a photo centroid layer.

This point layer was buffered by 1600 feet to create a polygon footprint index.

The photo center to edge is only 1500 feet, but the buffer was created larger than the image because the delivered tiles extent coincides in places with the King County 7500 grid.

The overlap ensures that tile selection during subsequent processing does not miss an edge tile.

2/1/2010

MrSid (v7) was used to create Generation 3 SID (lossless) mosaics in the King County 7500-ft tiling scheme.

Another similar routine was used to create Generation 3 mosaics (15x compression) in the King County Township-Range tiling scheme.

Update 4

Redefined Projection for all sids to be compliant with King County standard.
