Please help let qualified individuals be aware of this opportunity.

New statewide imagery, 2006 1-meter, full-color, DOQs for the Farm Services Agency, USDA, is now available through the Nebraska Department of Natural Resources. The compressed MrSID county files and the JPEG quarter quad files are available for download. Due to the large total size of the data, if someone is wanting to get a copy of all of the JPEGs for the entire state, it is recommended that you contact Gayle Follmer at NDNR to arrange alternative means of transfer. Thanks to the following partners for helping to make this new imagery available:

• USDA Farm Services Agency
• Nebraska Department of Natural Resources
• Nebraska Department of Roads

• Nebraska Public Power District
