Authors: Kevin Capone, GISP

Modern aerial imagery is very helpful for cultural research, yet is sometimes limiting due to development activities and natural changes through time. However, using historic aerial imagery you can extract new insight, as long as the information is in a usable format. Learn a practical workflow and best practice for making seamless mosaics using a variety of historic resources. Begin to leverage the volumes of archived public domain imagery to benefit your Tribal needs.
