Tarr Title: Landslides Induced by Hurricane Mitch in El Salvador-An Inventory and Descriptions of Selected Features Geospatial_Data_Presentation_Form: map Description: Abstract: This cover contains the outlines of aerial photograph coverage that was used to map landslides caused by Hurricane Mitch in October-November 1998. The black and white photographs were taken at scales of 1:40,00-scale and 1:15,000. Much of the photography was taken a few months after the storm, but additional photography was taken in late 2000. Purpose: In this data set, we show the areas of aerial photography used to create an inventory of landslides caused by Hurricane Mitch in El Salvador.

The shapefiles showing the original footprints of individual photographs were produced the the USGS Eros Data Center, Sioux Falls, SD. These shapefiles served as the foundation for this coverage, which was produced by manually digitizing around the edges of the footprints Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy: Lineage: Source_Information: Type_of_Source_Media: aerial photographs Source_Time_Period_of_Content: Time_Period_Information: Range_of_Dates/Times: Beginning_Date: 12/1998 Ending_Date: 12/2000 Source_Currentness_Reference: ground condition Process_Step: Process_Description: Aerial photographs taken between December 1998 and December 2000. Some photographs were part of a cooperative program between the Japanese International Cooperative Agency (JICA) and the Government of El Salvador and are available the the Salvadoran National Geographic Institute (IGN). Other photographs were acquired by the USGS under contract and are archive at the USGS's Eros Data Center, Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
