   <abstract>This metadata describes the 25cm pixel resolution, historical orthomosaic produced for the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) - Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) by Aero-Graphics. The ortho product provided is panchromatic, 8-bit per pixel and delivered in MrSID format. This orthophotography is published in Universal Transverse Mercator Zone 15N, NAD83, meters, EPSG:26915. Source aerial photography was collected in 1959.</abstract>
   <purpose>Rectified orthophotography for the State of Kansas may serve as a basemap for GIS applications.</purpose>
