CITY OF RIFLE PLANIMETRIC MAPPING

The City of Rifle, Colorado, contracted Sanborn to produce new orthoimagery, utility, parcel, planimetric, and topographic data for a project area covering the City of Rifle and the surrounding area.

The project required acquisition of 45 sq. miles of 6″ aerial imagery to support production of 6″ pixel resolution orthoimagery, 2-foot contours, and planimetric mapping data. The project also involved COGO parcel mapping of approximately 4,350 real estate parcels and digitization and/or survey of approximately 5,000 water and sanitary and sewer features.
