----------------------------Original message---------------------------- This is a question I hope John Sutherland can help with though others may have ideas as well. I am putting together a series of exercises centered on Pine Mountain, GA, that are meant to make students think about inter-relationships among geology, topography, agriculture, ecology, history and other aspects of social science. I have been able to come up with stuff on the geology and topography, Roosevelt at Warm Springs, and depression era small farms. I would like to develop a component related to farming, the timber industry, reforestation and Calloway Gardens. What would be ideal would be a set of series of air photos that campared the same area from the thirties or forties, the sixties, the seventies and finally the present. The idea would be to have students estimate the acreage devoted to various land uses in this area. Is there someone I could call at the Soil Conservation Service, the Army, the State? Whatever air photos Calloway Gardens might have had were burned in a fire last year. Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Tom Hanley, Department of Chemistry and Geology, Columbus State U., 4225 University Ave., Columbus, Georgia 31907-5645. http://earth.ColState.edu/cos/chem+geo/th_hp.htm VOX: 706-568-2074; FAX: 706-569-3133.
