What does this data set describe?

Title: BaseMap.jp2
Abstract:
This data set is a subset of the NAIP that covers Waterbury and the surrounding area in Vermont.The NAIP_1M_CLRIR_2011 dataset is a 1:40000 scale (1 meter) truecolor and infrared (4 band) NAIP imagery product acquired during the summer/fall of 2011 by the USDA-FSA-APFO NAIP program, then reprojected to VT State Plane Meters and cropped to the USGS quarter quad boundary by VCGI.
