Chris,

I had good luck recently working with Brock McCarty at Apollo Mapping.
We were able to direct a student to him for very high resolution imagery
of two tiny villages in India. I did not buy the imagery for her as I
doubted anyone would use it again making it unsuitable for a library
purchase, but it was reasonably priced and she was able to afford it
with her funding. Of course, your person may want a much larger area.

Brock's email is [log in to unmask] His phone number is 720-470-7988.

Best,

Julie

Hi:

I’m working with a student at the UA who is looking for high-resolution
imagery for modeling mountain lion habitat and wildlife corridors in
Arizona. He would like to correlate habitat classes and some other
climatic variable (such as E/T and % humidity) with mountain lion
presence/absence. He already has data on GPS-collared mountain lion
movements and locations.

The UA has a remote image archive, but he is looking for higher
resolution imagery, something higher resolution than the DOQQs which are
1 meter resolution. I’ve looked at the USGS high resolution imagery, but
it only covers urban areas in Arizona.

Does anyone have ideas for other potential sources?

Thanks

Chris
