- Abstract:
-
A 1974 color air photo of Mulkey Meadow was
scanned and georeferenced for use in a GIS
- Purpose:
-
The georeferenced photo can be overlain in a GIS
by other photos to detect change in landscape
features such as vegetation and stream courses
over time.

- Process_Description:
-
The air photo was scanned at 300 dpi and saved as
a TIF formatted image. The TIF image was then
geo-referenced to the Cirque Peak 7.5' USGS
digital orthophoto quad. ArcView Image Analyst v.
1.0 software was used to match points on the
scanned TIF file with points on the DOQ for
georeferencing.
