FBC – Indian Point Preserve

A little about the tour

The 4-pano virtual tour at the top of this page is chiefly comprised from photographs taken in late April and early May of this year with the last one in the tour being a (11,150 pixel x 5575 pixel) composite of: one of the images shot on the 26th of April, NAIP imagery (circa 2009 – an aerial image from the Dept. of Agriculture via the Maine Office of GIS) and layered with shaded Digital Elevation Model data generated in Global Mapper, a very handy GIS application. The NAIP imagery spans approximately 10 miles beginning near the Kilkenny Cove / Mud Creek Road and runs westerly more or less along U.S. Route 1 to Lower Patten Pond with Indian point about in the middle. The uppermost sky shot – a single frame, full 180° image, was shot on the 11th of May at the City’s boat ramp. The “Little Planet” was reprojected from the first pano in the tour. A much reduced version of the entire image (equirectangular projection) is shown below. Hope you like it and the rest of the tour.

The still images in the slide show were shot at other times spanning from 2009 through this month.
