SDMI Ortho Pilot Delivery

In January the Pilot delivery area for the statewide ortho mosaic was given to SDMI. This is a short overview with examples and temporary services for the pilot data.

SDMI is still working with the contractors to finalize metadata and delivery formats before it can be officially ingested and made available though normal services but a sneak preview of the data will be available in a variety of services and formats shortly.
