The 1853 Pacific Railroad Survey searched Montana for a pass over the Continental Divide, but its engineer Abiel Tinkham missed this one and crossed at Cut Bank Pass, 12 miles northwest. Marias Pass stayed a rumor until Great Northern engineer John F. #lidar #surveying https://northinglabs.com

Another day behind the glass. 🎯
Ground control took absolute accuracy from metres down to centimetres. The price: a few hours of fieldwork to survey the targets, and fifteen to twenty-five minutes of tagging them in the office.
The rule of thumb: a map's error should be a tenth of the thing you want to measure.
Seven surveyed targets. Four become ground control, and the software fits the map to them exactly. Three are held back as checkpoints, and the software never sees them.
For most mapping, canopy work and change detection, relative accuracy is enough.
The Iowa-Nebraska state boundary here follows the Missouri's pre-1877 channel, not today's river. In Nebraska v. Iowa (1892) the Supreme Court held that slow accretion moves a river boundary, but a sudden avulsion leaves it where it was. #lidar #surveying https://northinglabs.com

Many waxcap fungi are scarce or in decline. They're found in greater numbers on grasslands which have been managed in a traditional way for a long time.
