In light of the album cover, I decided to make a few more maps of the Pentagon. Using new imagery taken in September of 2005 by Aerial Express and released by the USGS at 0.5 meters (approximately 1.6-foot). The first rendered was a botch. Somehow when I was changing the design around I messed up and created an imperfect map, which I prefer not to publish. Howerver, I was able to sample it to make a derivative tessellation that I used for this map.

So I made 5 different maps of Pittsburgh and when I was post-processing them I discovered that 2 of the maps were not perfect. I found that a seam was off by a few pixels and I find this to be unacceptable, so I deleted the maps. This isn’t the first time this has happened, but it’s the first time it’s happened when I was making a series.

According to the meta-data, the aerial photography was taken on April 5th, 2005, processed in May of 2005, and released in October of 2005. The source spatial resolution is .3 meters per pixel, which gives a lot of detail.
