Survey Results
Survey polled users for interest in data at three scales:
• 1:100,000• 1:24,000• 1:12,000
1:24,000 scale was found to be the most favored resolution

Survey Results
Approximately 50% of all respondents indicated a need for imagery
Mostly COGS interested in ultra-high resolution (</= 6 inch)
• These COGs cover densely populated areas in Texas
Primarily state entities asking for 2 foot resolution (some COGs)
Natural color was more commonly requested than infrared (IR)
