Through our partnership with the Montana Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), the 2023 NAIP Imagery for Montana is now available! The geospatial aerial imagery data can be downloaded as countywide mosaics in MrSID format (MG4) or accessed through a web service. The Montana Spatial Data Infrastructure (MSDI) Imagery Framework layer relies solely on the statewide imagery products produced by the US Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) National Agricultural Imagery Program (NAIP).
Full statewide coverage was not attained for the 2023 NAIP imagery collection. Eighteen (18) counties do not have complete coverage: Beaverhead, Broadwater, Cascade, Flathead, Gallatin, Glacier, Jefferson, Judith Basin, Lake, Lewis and Clark, Lincoln, Madison, Meagher, Missoula, Park, Powell, Stillwater, Sweet Grass, and Teton.
A map with the 2023 collection can be viewed at: https://ftpgeoinfo.msl.mt.gov/Data/Spatial/MSDI/Imagery/2023_NAIP/NAIP2023Collection.pdf
The 2023 NAIP web service and county mosaics will be updated with the 2024 imagery as soon as it becomes available.
