Summary: | Aerial photographs of the Networked Info-mechanical System (NIMS) grid in Toolik Lake, Alaska were taken using a rig and kite system. As part of the NIMS grid, white boards were nailed into the tundra to act as Ground Control Points (GCPs). The purpose of these boards was to facilitate the visibility of the grid from the aerial photographs, as well as to facilitate georeferencing using ArcMap GIS. Most of the pictures taken are high resolution although only a few are lacking good quality. The kite was flown twice on the summer of 2013 |
