Here's an interesting web site to check out aerial photos of your favorite fishing spots.

You can get a free two week trial but you need a high speed internet connection to make it work right. The regular subscription is $29.00 and offers some improved features, including a topographical feature that's good for scouting hunting spots.

Nahh... Slip - I don't think he's schlepping Keyhole (are you?) so I think it's the latter and not :spam: ...

On the other hand, this is for free :D http://ortho.edc.uri.edu/ and was developed by the brother of one our original members...

Relax, no spamming here. I was just passing along something I thought was interesting, and FREE. Google owns Keyhole . . . maybe I can get Google to pay me a 50% commission on all the surfcasters that sign up for a free trial :rolleyes:

NOAA has some great high altitude ortho-photos in their database. They are also corrected to remove the peripheral distortion. Here (http://users.adelphia.net/~bigpete/clarkssaqugurnet.gif) is a great picture of Saquish and the Gurnet that came from NOAA.

Here is the LINK (http://nosdataexplorer.noaa.gov/nosdataexplorer/) to the NOAA NOS map finder. It is tricky to navigate but there are some hidden gems in there. There are lots of cool prints in the archive section too.

Support the Link John R posted.. I work with those people (albeit indirectly most of the time) Just about everyform of data for the state is available from RIGIS www.edc.uri.edu, including orthophotos, topomaps etc...

Your link is crusty rock. I like maptech better, already found some honey holes for next season with it.

Forget about that URI stuff. Here's the URL of the DEM map server that shows both topos and black and white orthophotos

http://www.state.ri.us/DEM/maps/index.htm

Once you've zoomed into a small enough area of the state map, click on "image layers", select topo or aerial, then click on "refresh map" button.

DEM is using the same topos and same photos as the RIGIS web-page... just FYI before you "forget about" that URI stuff :smash: :D

Same data, but DEM's is a lot easier to use. Check it out!
