Each point represents the approximate location of the center of one of more than 204 aerial photos collected for the northwestern part of Lake County, Indiana, for the following years: 1951, 1958, 1965, 1980, and 1990. Purpose: The layer may be used as a reference to determine the availability and ID numbers of specific coastal aerial photo images for the Grand Calumet area, in the northwestern part of Lake County, Indiana. A user can acquire scanned images of the photos from the LakeRim Web site (http://lakerim.indiana.edu/). Supplemental_Information: The underlying imagery associated with this dataset was developed from a four-volume series of reports produced by the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency, (1991) titled "Northwest Indiana Site Inventory and Landuse/Landcover Study." Volume 1 covers the areas of Whiting and East Chicago. Volume 2 covers the Hammond area. Volume 3 covers the areas of Black Oak and Gary. Volume 4 covers the area of Gary. The following was excerpted from Table 1 of the four-volume series titled "Northwest Indiana Site Inventory and Landuse/Landcover Study," and contains documentation information of the aerial photography used for the 1951 through 1990 imagery used to create this image catalog: Year - date - scale - filmtype* - photo source** - photo I.D. 1951 - 12/09/1951 - 1:29,000 - B&W - USGS - PK 1958 - 09/12/1958 - 1:20,000 - B&W - ASCS - BFJ 1965 - 07/15/1965 - 1:23,000 - B&W - ASCS - BFJ 1980 - 04/19/1980 - 1:24,000 - B&W - SID - N/A 1990 - 09/25/1990 - 1:13,000 - CC - EMSL - 91793 *B&W: Black-and-white *CC: Conventional Color **ASCS: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service, Salt Lake City, Utah **USGS: U.S. Geological Survey, Sioux Falls, South Dakota **SID: Sidwell Company, 28 W 240 North Ave., West Chicago, Illinois **EMSL: U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Environmental Monitoring Systems Laboratory, Las Vegas, Nevada Time_Period_of_Content: Time_Period_Information: Range_of_Dates/Times: Beginning_Date: 19511209 Ending_Date: 19900925 Currentness_Reference: Data collection dates Status: Progress: Complete Maintenance_and_Update_Frequency: None planned Spatial_Domain: Bounding_Coordinates: West_Bounding_Coordinate: -87.536702 East_Bounding_Coordinate: -87.230889 North_Bounding_Coordinate: 41.706199 South_Bounding_Coordinate: 41.547207 Keywords: Theme: Theme_Keyword_Thesaurus: None Theme_Keyword: aerial Theme_Keyword: photograph Theme_Keyword: aerial photograph Theme_Keyword: aerial photo Theme_Keyword: photography Theme_Keyword: Indiana Geological Survey (IGS) Theme_Keyword: Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) Theme_Keyword: U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Theme_Keyword: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Theme: Theme_Keyword_Thesaurus: Geography Network Keyword Thesaurus Theme_Keyword: environment Theme_Keyword: imageryBaseMapsEarthCover Place: Place_Keyword_Thesaurus: IGS Metadata Keyword Thesaurus Place_Keyword: Grand Calumet region Place_Keyword: Whiting Place_Keyword: East Chicago Place_Keyword: Hammond Place_Keyword: Black Oak Place_Keyword: Gary Place_Keyword: Lake County Place_Keyword: Northwest Indiana Place_Keyword: Indiana Access_Constraints: This file is available to anyone, but access may be contingent on written request, specific terms relevant to the agency or person making the request, and (or) current freedom of information statutes in the state of Indiana.

These attributes are therefore assumed to be correct. The "Image_Ref" field values were entered manually, but checked to ensure continuity. Logical_Consistency_Report: No checks for logical consistency were made. Completeness_Report: This layer includes one point for each image (204 total) included in the four-volume series titled "Northwest Indiana Site Inventory and Landuse/Landcover Study," which contains documentation information of the aerial photography used for the 1951 through 1990 imagery used to create this image catalog. Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report: The points in the layer represent the center of aerial photo image tiles. The points were generated using the "Feature to Point" tool in ArcGIS and should fall very near the centroid of each georeferenced image tile. Vertical_Positional_Accuracy: Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report: Vertical positional accuracy was not a factor in the production of this shapefile.

The resulting image catalogs were converted to polygon shapefiles, which consist of polygon features representing the extent of each individual image. These layers were created using a second extension called "Image Catalog 2 Polygon." The attributes XMIN, XMAX, YMIN, YMAX, and Image_no were automatically created during this process. IGS personnel then added a new field to the attribute table of each layer named "Image_Ref," and populated it with sequential numbers for each image from west to east. IGS personnel merged the resulting polygon layers into a single polygon shapefile called GRAND_CALUMET_PHOTO_INDEX_POLY.SHP using the "Merge" tool from ArcToolbox in ESRI ArcGIS. The final layer, GRAND_CALUMET_PHOTO_INDEX.SHP, was created using the "Feature To Point" tool from ArcToolbox in ESRI ArcGIS version 9.3.
