        <procdesc>imagery was acquired using a 4-band RGB-IR precision aerial camera at a raw nominal pixel resolution of 24 cm. Aerial triangulation was based on direct GPS/IMU geo-referencing.  Alabama state LIdar DEM was used for the ortho-rectification process. Individual ortho-images were mosaicked to produce a seamless 4-band RGB-IR </procdesc>
