The locations of aerial photographs from the National Aerial Photography Program (NAPP) and the National High Altitude Photography (NHAP) program are shown on flight-line indexes.

Flight-line indexes are maps on which the centers of aerial photographs are represented as dots and identified by roll and frame numbers and other information. By circling your area of interest using such information as towns, roads, and names, you can see which photographs cover that area.
