Standardize film sleevesNorth oriented scansEarly photo periods now mandatoryPrepare for higher costs because of fuel Most contractors indicated they can fly more, however, the SE US required numerous photo season extensionsIn 2006, we will attempt to balance “good” and “bad” weather states among the contractorsMetadata matching scan to camera report“Best Available” DOQ and DEM to be used for orthorectification

Streamlined version of LPSSimple interface for less experienced usersMany parameters will be set automatically

ProjectionName and location of input and output files

Many options will be hiddenNRI is doing single frame orthorectification

This approach should minimize confusion and reduce mistakes

NRI Register StepsNRI Register StepsNRI Register Steps

1. Automatically create the LPS block file• Fixed format directories and files

2. Menu to select pre-built .cam files3. Interface to measure fiducial marks

• Auto driving and accuracy feedback4. Interface to measure control points

• Auto driving, auto populated (DOQ, DEM, GCP)5. Output files named correctly

• Creates ortho image, metadata, block file, and triangulation report
