Introduction
The Latvian Orthophoto Mosaic is a part of the dynamic, zoomable maps in windPRO. The orthophotos were released by the Latvian Geospatial Information Agency – in order to cover the entire Latvia - they come from multiple annual campaigns. The mosaic in windPRO is mainly from the Agency's 5th and 6th cycle. The mosaic in windPRO is based on the most recent data available (per october 2019) - and distributed with a minimum pixel size of 1.0m.
Usage Notes
