Maine Statewide Orthoimagery Project 2018 for York, ME. All imagery was collected during the 2018 Spring flying season during leaf-off conditions for deciduous vegetation in the State of Maine. The sun angle was at 30-degrees or greater, and streams were within their normal banks. During the flight planning and acquisition, a significant effort was made to limit clouds, snow, fog, haze, smoke, or other ground obscuring conditions in the imagery. In no case does the maximum cloud cover exceed 5% per image. Within the immediate areas of power plants, factories, or controlled agricultural burns some steam or smoke and/or shadows may be visible on imagery. The Maine GeoLibrary Board has developed a statewide, 5-year, rotating orthoimagery acquisition program for Maine to facilitate state, regional and local government GIS base mapping in an efficient and cost effective program. The State of Maine will use digital orthoimagery for the development of various base map products in a computerized GIS that will support the needs of the state and multiple stakeholders through applications, such as, multi-jurisdictional homeland security mapping applications, state and county emergency management applications, regional and local planning, state and local public safety applications, economic development and other GIS business objectives.

These data were automated to provide an accurate high-resolution historical shoreline of York Harbor, ME suitable as a geographic information system (GIS) data layer. These data are derived from shoreline maps that were produced by the NOAA National Ocean Service including its predecessor agencies which were based on an office interpretation of imagery and/or field survey. The NGS attribution scheme 'Coastal Cartographic Object Attribute Source Table (C-COAST)' was developed to conform the attribution of various sources of shoreline data into one attribution catalog. C-COAST is not a recognized standard, but was influenced by the International Hydrographic Organization's S-57 Object-Attribute standard so the data would be more accurately translated into S-57.

Tile Download Link 2005 aerial orthophotos at a resolution of 6 inches for York, Maine. Bradstreet Consultants, Inc. used the aerial photography flown in one session on April 18, 2005, at a resolution of 0.5' pixel (similar to 1"=600'). Bradstreet Consultants, Inc. gathered control points to support full analytical aerotriangulation. The aerotriangulation solution was used to set up each stereopair of photos for orthorectification and DTM compilation. The ortho imagery was rectified from the natural color digial imagery employing a digital terrain model (DTM) and supplemented from updating some town's original DTM and some town's from scratch using the imagery in softcopy (digital) stereoplotter in the Kork KDMS and DAT/EM AutoCAD DWG format.

Maine Statewide Orthoimagery Project - During the spring of 2020 new 4-band (R, G, B, and NIR) aerial imagery was acquired covering the entire project area using Leica ADS digital camera systems. All imagery was collected during the 2022 spring flying season during leaf-off conditions for deciduous vegetation in the State of Maine. The sun angle shall be 25-degrees or greater, and streams should be within their normal banks, unless otherwise negotiated. During flight planning and acquisition, a significant effort is made to limit clouds, snow (please note: small amounts of snow such as piles in parking lots, extreme shaded areas, within dense evergreens or unpopulated northern facing slopes may be acceptable), fog, haze, smoke, or other ground obscuring conditions in the imagery. In no case will the maximum cloud cover exceed 5% per image. Within the immediate areas of power plants, factories, or controlled agricultural burns some steam or smoke and/or shadows may be visible on imagery. Woolpert produced new 8-bit, 4-band stacked color digital orthoimagery files in GeoTIFF format with TFW “world file” at a 45cm (18-inch), 30cm (12-inch), 15cm (6-inch) and 7.5cm (3-inch).The Maine GeoLibrary Board has developed a statewide, 5-year, rotating orthoimagery acquisition program for Maine to facilitate state, regional and local government GIS base mapping in an efficient and cost-effective program.

Tile Download Link Ortho Imagery - As the prime contractor, Bradstreet Consultants, Inc. used the aerial photography flown in one session on April 23-26, 2007, by The Sanborn Map Compay, Inc. of Charlotte, NC who acquired approximately 4,000 photos @ a resolution of 0.5' pixel (similar to 1"=600') with airborne GPS using a Z/I Digital Mapping Aerial Camera. Bradstreet Consultants, Inc. painted and repainted ground targets for photo survey control points (~400) to support full analytical aerotriangulation. The aerotriangulation solution was used to set up each stereopair of photos for orthorectification and DTM compilation. The ortho imagery was rectified from the natural color digial imagery employing a digital terrain model (DTM) collected from the 2007 imagery and supplemented from updating some town's original DTM and some town's from scratch using the imagery in softcopy (digital) stereoplotter in the Kork KDMS and DAT/EM AutoCAD DWG format.

GIS dataset includes surveyed shoreline positions for most of the larger beach systems along the southern to mid-coast Maine coastline in York, Cumberland, and Sagadahoc counties. Data were collected using a Leica GS-15 network Real Time Kinematic Global Positioning System (RTK-GPS), and in areas with poor cellular coverage, an Ashtech Z-Xtreme RTK-GPS. Both systems typically have horizontal and vertical accuracies of less than 5 cm. In general, surveys are attempted to be repeated at approximately the same month in each consecutive survey year, however this is not always possible. As a result, the number of available shoreline positions may vary by beach.
