Summary
This mosaic was created using high-resolution aerial imagery collected on August 20, 2020 with a Phase One iXU-RS 1000 4-band aerial camera system (RGB and achromatic). The raw image files from the two cameras are combined to create 4-band imagery. The mission was flown at approximately 1,200 meters above ground level resulting in a ground sample distance of 0.15 meters/pixel (6 inches/pixel). The area of interest is the Emiquon Preserve and Spunky Bottoms Preserve in Illinois and the mosaic is for the purpose of habitat monitoring. 4-band imagery allows for displaying the image as either True Color (RGB) or Color Infrared (CIR). To display the mosaic as RGB the Red channel is Band 1, the Green channel is Band 2 and the Blue channel [...]

The area of interest is the Emiquon Preserve and Spunky Bottoms Preserve in Illinois and the mosaic is for the purpose of habitat monitoring. 4-band imagery allows for displaying the image as either True Color (RGB) or Color Infrared (CIR). To display the mosaic as RGB the Red channel is Band 1, the Green channel is Band 2 and the Blue channel is Band 3. To display the mosaic as CIR the Red channel display should be set to Band 4, the Green channel to Band 1, and the Blue Channel to Band 2.
