Service Description:

In spring of 2013 and 2014, the U.S. Geological Survey contracted for true-color imagery covering the entire state of Massachusetts. Image type for all of the areas is 24 bit, 4-band (red, green, blue, and near-infrared RGBN) portions of the spectrum. Each band has pixel values ranging 0-255. Pixel resolution is 0.3 meters (30 centimeters), or approximately one foot.

This digital orthoimagery can serve a variety of purposes, from general planning, to field reference for spatial analysis, to a tool for data development and revision of vector maps. It can also serve as a reference layer or basemap for myriad applications inside geographic information system (GIS) software.

It was created to provide easily accessible geospatial data which is readily available to enhance the capability of Federal, State, and local emergency responders, as well as plan for homeland security efforts. These data also support The National Map.

This tiled cached image service was created using JPEG 2000 versions of the imagery that MassGIS converted from GeoTiffs and distributes online. The tile cache displays the red, green and blue bands and is visible from scales 1:4,622,324 to 1:564.

For more information see the imagery's MassGIS metadata page.
