[OKGIS] Old aerial photos of OKC?

[Brown, Scott]

If you have access to AutoCAD Map, you can import the freely available mrsid images straight into your drawing.  Otherwise there is a command line utility (I've never used) at http://www.lizardtech.com/download/dl_options.php?page=geo (scroll down to MrSID Decode) that is supposed to decompress the MrSID files to a format that AutoCAD can natively read (i.e. TIFF).  Maybe someone else has experience with this and can comment on whether or not it works as advertised.

Is there a web site that will let me get aerial photo for Oklahoma in a format to import into Autocad?

	David,
	 
	Is there someplace where free aerial photos from the 30's and 40's of Oklahoma City might exist?  It would be helpful if they were digitized.
	 
	Thanks
	Mark
