The U.S. Geological Survey's Upper MidwestEnvironmental Sciences Center (UMESC) has obtainedhistorical photography of the Upper MississippiRiver, collected by the Corps of Engineers. TheU.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's (FWS) UpperMississippi National Wildlife and Fish Refugecontracted the Upper Midwest EnvironmentalSciences Center (UMESC) to scan and georeferencethe 1961 images for lower Pool 8, to createreference images for use in geographic informationsystem (GIS). These data are also distributedthrough the UMESC Web site so others can alsoaccess the data.

The U.S. Geological Survey's Upper Midwest Environmental Sciences Center (UMESC) collects aerial photography of the Upper Mississippi River System (UMRS) floodplain on a regular basis. These data are used to support the Center's long-term goals of understanding the UMRS and developing useful products for the Long Term Resource Monitoring Program (LTRMP). In 2000, 1:16,000-scale true color aerial photos were collected on the Mississippi River from Cairo, IL to Minneapolis, MN and the on Illinois River from its confluence with the Mississippi near Grafton, IL to Lake Michigan/Chicago, IL. The photos were collected using a 60% stereo overlap between photos in the same flight line and a 30% overlap between flight lines....

In 1994, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS)collected 1:15,000-scale true color aerialphotographs in Mississippi River Navigation Pools7 and 8. The FWS contracted the Upper MidwestEnvironmental Sciences Center (UMESC) to scan andgeoreference these images, to create referenceimages for use in geographic information system(GIS) software programs. These data are alsodistributed through the UMESC Web site so otherscan have access to the data as well.

The U.S. Geological Survey's Upper Midwest Environmental Sciences Center (UMESC) has obtained historical photography of the Upper Mississippi River, collected by the Corps of Engineers in the 1930s. The Center uses these photos in their training program for GIS interns, to provide them with experience in georeferencing photos. Whenever enough photos are georeferenced that a mosaic can be created, the data are made available through the center's Internet site. The 1937 photo mosaic for Mississippi River Navigation Pool 15 was created using 1:20,000-scale black-and-white photos collected during September 1937.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's (FWS) Upper Mississippi National Wildlife and Fish Refuge contracted the Upper Midwest Environmental Sciences Center (UMESC) to scan and georeference the 1947 images for lower Pool 8, to create reference images for use in geographic information system (GIS). These data are also distributed through the UMESC Web site, so others can also access the data.

Whenever enough photos are georeferenced that a mosaic can be created, the data are made available through the center's Internet site. The 1930 photo mosaic for Mississippi River Navigation Pool 21 was created using 1:12,000-scale black-and-white photos collected during 1929-1930 probably late summer). The photography was originally collected for the Brown Survey. Individual prints were trimmed...
