The WyGISC Imagery Server provides access to the most recent aerial photography 2009 true-color NAIP and all previous aerial photography collected, i.e. 2006, 2000, and 1994, Additionally access is provided for all series (i.e. 1:24,000, 1:100,000, and 1:250,000) of Digital Raster Graphics (scanned topographic maps) for Wyoming, including both collared and clipped images.
A DRG is a raster image of a published map. DRG's are made by scanning published paper maps on high-resolution scanners. The raster image is georeferenced and fit to the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) projection, and NAD 1927 Datum. Colors are standardized to remove scanner limitations and artifacts. The average data set size is about 8 megabytes in Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) with PackBits compression. DRG's can be easily combined with other digital cartographic products such as digital elevation models (DEM) and digital orthophoto quadrangles (DOQ). DRGs are available for Wyoming at 1:24,000, 1:100,000, and 1:250,000.

This ArcGIS Server serviceDRGs (Digital Raster Graphics), or topos (USGS Topographic Maps) provides a cached service for users of Wyoming geospatial data using ESRI GIS. The service provides scale-dependant representation of the 250,000, 100,000, and 24,000 topos for Wyoming. USE CONSTRAINTS: Users should follow use constraints found for each data layer available in the mapping service. Visit the Wyoming GeoLibrary for original metadata. WYGISC DOES NOT GUARANTEE 24/7 SUPPORT OF ITS UNFUNDED, FREE MAPPING SERVICES. WyGISC reserves the right to remove access to these services at any time.
These data were released prior to the October 1, 2016 effective date for the USGS’s policy dictating the review, approval, and release of scientific data as referenced in USGS Survey Manual Chapter 502.8 Fundamental Science Practices: Review and Approval of Scientific Data for Release. This Digital Raster Graphic (DRG) was created using scanned U.S. Geological Survey 7.5-minute 1 to 24,000 scale maps georeferenced in Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) grid. DRGs can be acquired with or without collar information for use in Geographic Information System (GIS) environment. Collarless DRGs can be edge matched creating a continuous collection of topographic maps.
