Free Iowa Historic Aerials

Remote Sensing

The state's Dept of Natural Resources and partners unveiled a complete set of Iowa's aerial photos taken in the 1930s. Iowa is the third state to make the historical images available (after Delaware and Connecticut).

Non tech folks can view the images at the DNR site; GIS folks can access images here.

More on the process of finding the aerials is here.

NJ has 1930s aerials online too. Currently they are in the iMap-NJ DEP mapping app at www.state.nj.us/dep/gis/depsplash.htm. NJ Office of GIS will be putting up a WMS of those and other aerials by themselves at njgin.state.nj.us in the near future.

Great post! Connecticut's historical data can be found on UCONN's MAGIC Historical Mapping Online portal - http://www.econmap.com
