The orthophotos are 0.5-meter ground sample distance (GSD) and are in UTM Zone 15, NAD83 (meters). The tiling format of the imagery is based on a 3.75' x 3.75' quarter quadrangle with a 150 meter buffer on all four sides. This metadata record was created by MnGeo using information supplied by DNR and Surdex Corporation.
The orthophotos are used by Minnesota DNR for forest management.
