[OSGeo-Discuss] Anyone Know What's Happened to All the NAIP Servers?

2010-07-27 Thread Bill Thoen
Up until just a few days ago, USDA NAIP (US Dept of Agriculture's  
National Agriculture Inventory Program) 1-meter aerial imagery was 
available free from several government servers but suddenly they all 
seem to have gone dark. Both the USGS ArcGIS and USDA.gov servers and a 
couple of AFPO sources seemed to have dried up simultaneously. Doe 
anyone know why? Is it going to be restored or scrapped? Is It is 
available elsewhere?


I was using the USGS server at 
http://isse.cr.usgs.gov/arcgis/services/Combined/USGS_EDC_Ortho_NAIP/MapServer/WMSServer? 
but it's now broadcasting  a runtime error instead of images. I hope 
it's not gone for good because it is a great source for free aerial 
imagery. So if anyone knows what's happened or what's unfolding here I'd 
like to find out. With the GeoCommunicator site announcing its shut-down 
soon I'm getting concerned that something bigger might be happening to 
US govt. spatial data resources.

Bill,

 

The 2005 and 2009 NAIP imagery is still available for California
Counties from Cal-Atlas. I'm not sure if that helps you, but they
haven't removed the data from that source yet.
