DOQQ

DOQQ or digital orthographic quarter-quads, are digital photos taken at an aerial view that may be digitally altered to give a more accurate picture. This technology has made it possible for map makers to notice some errors in paper maps that were perfectly accepted before. The example above is a DOQQ photo of downtown Sacramento, California and the arrow is point to the Department of Conservations state headquarters.
