AERIAL PHOTOGRAPHY IN GEORGIA

During the latter part of 1985, the Georgia Cartographic Information Center compiled a directory of county coverage-aerial photography projects of the state. County-wide coverage for the period 1980 through 1985 was compiled for each of the 159 counties by type, scale, year and holder of photography. This directory Is an update of the 1985 report and includes photography through the early part of 1988.
For the preparation of this update, a questionnaire was sent to all 159 counties, Inquiring about their current aerial photography holdings. Onehundred and twenty-six (126) counties responded. In addition to the direct Inquiries to the counties, traditional sources of information on aerial photography coverage of the state were consulted, such as private aerial photography firms and state and federal agencies.
Three types of coverage characterize the aerial photography projects reported during the 1980 1988 period. The first type of project covers individual counties, most often flown for tax mapping purposes.
The second type is regional coverage. Most of the counties of the metro Atlanta area were flown in 1985, 1986, 1987, and 1988. This photography is black and white and was flown at a scale of 1:31,900.
The third type of coverage consists of two statewide projects flown during this period. The first statewide project was flown from 1980 to 1984. This project of the National Geological Survey produced two types of photography, at two ,different scales. Black and white photography at the 1:80,000 scale and a color-infrared photography at the 1:58,000 scale was produced.
The second statewide project was flown during March and April, 1988. This project, also part of the National Aerial Photography Program, produced 1:40,000 scale color-infrared and 1:40,000 black and white photography of the entire state. The color-infrared photography is available from the U.S. Geological Survey and the black and white is available from the Marf<Hurd Corporation, which flew the project.

photo targets were placed over surveyed ground control markers. These photo targets are visible in the aerial photography, and can be used to correct the geometric distortions that normally occur in photography.
As a result of this 1988 aerial photography and photo targeting project, nearly all of Georgia's 159 counties can obtain maps that meet U.S.G.S. standards for map accuracy. The photograph can be enlarged to scales up to 1"=400' and thus is suitable for preparing tax parcel maps and other map layers for use in land information and geographic information systems.
Clarifications/explanations that apply to specific photo projects will be provided at the bottom of the page on which the subject project appears.
The following notes have general applicability:
1) The SC represents the source code and constitutes the producer/owner/holder of the photography. This code is held by the Department;
2) all source code "2" 1:58,000 and 1:40,000 scale photography is color-infrared. All other photography is black and white, unless otherwise specified;
3) the" * " denotes that only a portion of the county was photographed
during the initial indicated year. The remainder of the county would have been photographed during one or more of the following years, with the specific year(s) denoted with an "* ".
