LAR-IAC3


LAR-IAC3 is now underway to update the digital aerial imagery. For this round, only the 4" resolution natural color ortho imagery and oblique aerial digital imagery will be acquired (also at 4" resolution); just like what was done for the LAR-IAC2 Project.
  • Note on LAR-IAC/LAR-IAC2/LAR-IAC3:
  • LAR-IAC refers to the Consortium and the first iteration of the project (2006 imagery capture).
  • LAR-IAC2 refers to the second iteration of the project (2008 imagery capture).
  • LAR-IAC3 refers to the third iteration of the project (2011 imagery capture).
