Statewide Imagery Project - Ortho & LiDAR 6” Pixel Resolution (Buy-up): Bartholomew Elkhart Harrison Kosciusko Marion St. Joseph 12” Pixel Resolution: Boone Brown Carroll Cass Clinton Crawford Fulton Hendricks 2011 2013 2012 Howard Jackson Johnson Lawrence Marshall Miami Monroe Morgan Morgan Orange Pulaski Starke Tipton Wabash Washington Orthophotography and LiDAR data were acquired for 28 counties in 2011, 6 of which added funds to pay for higher (6-inch resolution) orthophotography. These data will be sent to each county, stored at the state, and also made available to the public via the IndianaMap. Volunteers from INDOT, IDEM, and DNR are performing the QA/QC of this data prior to acceptance. Flights have started in the eastern tier of counties to begin the acquisition for this year. The western tier will be acquired in 2013.

Improving the NHD (National Hydrography Dataset) Purpose: To improve the accuracy and level of detail of the data about the surface waters in Indiana The NHD is a data set that is critical to the study of flooding and water quality. Streams in blue have been added to the existing NHD (red) through this project

Improving the NHD Funding exists for the 30 sub-basin shown in green (Phase 1) One of those, the Upper Eel, is serving as the pilot area Phase 1 is scheduled for completion by December, 2013 This $1.3 million project is supported by the Waters Workgroup, a team composed primarily of volunteers from DNR and IDEM. Mike Martin, DNR, is the workgroup chair.
