MEDOQ are digital orthorectified aerial imagery in gray-scale with 1-meter ground resolution. They are derived from the original US Geological Survey Digital Orthophoto Quarter Quads but cover one full 7.5 minute quadrangle. MEDOQs are compressed using the Lizardtech MrSid software (http://www.lizardtech.com) and are referred to as MrSid format ( .sid ) imagery. The MEDOQs are suitable for applications at a scale of 1" = 1,000 ( 1:12,000 ). MEDOQs are now available for all of Maine on the Maine Office of GIS. MEDOQs are are suitable for applications at a scale of 1" = 1,000 ( 1:12,000 ) or larger. According to National Map Accuracy Standards for maps at that scale 90% of well defined points tested must be within 1/30 of an inch or 33.33 feet of their true position on the ground. DOQs serve a variety of purposes, from interim maps to field references for earth science investigations and analysis. The DOQ is useful as a layer of a geographic information system and as a tool for revision of digital line graphs and topographic maps.Users must assume responsibility in determining the usability of this data for their purpose. Data at this scale may be useful for parcel level studies and detailed planning.
