Comments:
There is a charge for data delivery by non-University of California
(UC) users, or for UC users working on non-UC projects, for the
use of remote-sensing images and digital data. The Map and Imagery
Library (MIL) houses 1.3 million Landsat satellite images, 3.8 million
aerial photographs, 480,000 maps, 2,000 digital items (mainly CD-ROMs),
and 6,000 books. Users may either come to the collection, or users
may hire staff to do air-photo searches. All digital work must be
done by staff; mainly limited to copying files and scanning. MIL
acquires such items as the National Geophysical Data Center's Gravity
CD and various earthquake-information CDs. MIL specializes in aerial
photographs of California, especially of southern California. MIL
holds archival hardcopy Landsat satellite images from 1972 to approximately
1975. In maps, MIL specializes in medium-scale topographic sheets
for foreign countries (ca. 1:250,000). |
