The office of CADD and Mapping Services has implemented a new innovative way to search for historic aerial imagery. You can now access the entire ODOT Aerial Imagery Archive through a single Google Earth (KML) file.

We have structured the Google Earth (KML) file as follows:

 

Top level is sorted by DECADE

Second level under DECADE is sorted by YEAR

Third level under YEAR is sorted by DATE of imagery

Forth level under DATE is sorted by each IMAGE

 

The ODOT Aerial Imagery Archive contains over 500,000 individual images. Each image is represented in Google Earth as a single center point for each image. The image center point is displayed as a camera icon. The Google Earth time slider has been enabled for searching through specific time periods depending on the imagery loaded or toggled on. Also, when searching for images try to load specific years or single decades and not the entire aerial archive as this may result in Google Earth crashing due to the extensive amount of image points being loaded.

The aerial images available for download are not orthophotos therefore, will not overlay properly when loading in Google Earth or other GIS applications.

And Also each year is a separate KML at the same link: /Imagery/KMZ/####.kml

 

Goes back to the 40's and there are lots of goodies in there.

Still some bugs in the system.

I downloaded an image, from 1949, centered on Prospect (SW Marion County) and the image was upside down, or reversed from the ground level.
