Update October 30, 2019: The project schedule has been updated below. The consortium met yesterday to discuss derivatives from the Lidar.
The preliminary photo web service is available. This is first automated pass to stitch the individual images together. There are known issues. Use your RLIS credentials to login and access the service. http://gis.oregonmetro.gov/arcgis/rest/services/photo/aerialimage2019prelim/ImageServer
The pilots for photos and lidar are under review and Metro will be providing feedback to Geoterra shortly. If you are interested in getting access to the pilot email [email protected] and CC [email protected]
Update September 24, 2019: The project schedule has been updated below.
Update September 9, 2019: From Geoterra: Completed acquisition [of the lidar] on the 31st of August for remaining small lines in the northwest AOI. All recently acquired data is being reviewed for potential re-flights and is expected to complete their initial review by the end of this month. Geoterra has provided a project schedule based on the last day of photo and lidar acquisitions. Once Metro has reviewed them, the scheduled on this page will be updated.
Update July 30, 2019: Collection of the imagery is nearly complete. From Geoterra: The entire project has been flown, but we have a few spots to re-acquire due to unavoidable small clouds/shadows.
About
The Regional Aerial Photo Consortium enables the joint purchase of digital aerial orthophotography by local governments and nonprofit groups in the Portland area. Consortium purchase reduces each member's cost of obtaining photography through cost sharing. The digital imagery available includes the urban areas of Multnomah, Clackamas and Washington counties. In some years, the coverage is expanded to include rural areas, LiDAR and LiDAR derivatives. The intent of the consortium is to provide for a cost-effective means to acquire digital orthophotography on an annual basis.
The urban area covers 656 square miles. The urban/rural coverage covers 973 square miles.
