Each map below shows how the flight is divided into areas and how the flight path is divided into 5-minute (time) segments. Each segment is represented by alternating purple and yellow lines. Pages containing thumbnail images of photographs, referred to as contact sheets, were created based on these segments. Click on each segment name to access the respective contact sheet. Refer to Table 1 for a list of images, latitude and longitude, and date and time by contact sheet.

Segment names, also referred to as contact sheets, are labeled with the following filename format: yyyy_mmdd_hhmmss.jpg, where yyyy denotes the year, mmdd denotes the month and day, and hhmmss denotes the start of the 5-minute segment of time during which those photographs were taken. For example, image 2012_1104_164000.jpg was taken November 4, 2012, starting at 16:40:00 Universal Time Coordinated (UTC). All times refer to UTC. Best effort was made to set the camera's internal clock to within one second of UTC at the beginning of the flight.
