The State of Indiana has released the first year (2011) data products of its 3-year program to acquire 1-foot resolution orthophotography (RGBI) and elevation data for the entire state of Indiana. For this project the State has been divided up into three acquisition areas: center (2011), east (2012), and west (2013).

The State of Indiana has released the first year (2011) data products of its 3-year program to acquire 1-foot resolution orthophotography (RGBI) and elevation data for the entire state of Indiana. For this project the State has been divided up into three acquisition areas: center (2011), east (2012), and west (2013).
In 2011 twenty-eight Counties in the center column of Indiana were captured by Indiana's contractor Woolpert. Six of these Counties elected to buy-up to 6-inch imagery. Woolpert also acquired and delivered to the State of Indiana 1.5 meter nominal-post-spacing LiDAR from which they also created a 5-foot pixel bare-earth hydro-flattened Digital Elevation Model (DEM) for the same area.
The 2011 data is currently making its way out to all 28 of the 2011 Counties, and is in the process of being published to the IndianaMap and other outlets. Anna Radue at IU Bloomington has already made all the 2011 data available for viewing, downloading, and as web services through the Indiana Spatial Data Portal (gis.iu.edu). For more information (and METADATA) for the 2011 data click here .
IGIC Corporate or Institutional Members who would like copies of multiple counties of the new 2011 data [or the complete 2011 data set] can contact Phil Worrall via email at IGIC pworrall@igic.org. IGIC Corporate or Institutional Members can check out a hard drive containing all the 2011 imagery (2.31 TB total), a hard drive containing all the 2011 elevation data (1.0 TB total), or both drives if they want to make a complete copy of all the data quickly and easily.
