Gilboa, New York · Aerial record 1960–2026
Explore what the aerial record can—and cannot—tell us about three adjoining farm parcels.
How to read this
Each overlay is a dated interpretation of what is visible in one photograph. Differences in season, film, shadows, labels, seams, and registration can look like landscape change. “No conclusion” means the photograph is inadequate or obscured—not that a feature disappeared.
What the record suggests
The broad open-field framework, 208 access corridor, southeastern woodland, 135 farmstead setting, and pond remain recognizable through much of the sequence. Internal field lines, edges, and vegetation vary, but exact change dates are rarely established by aerial evidence alone.
Source note
The parcel outlines are current tax-parcel references. Historical observation geometry is anchored to 1968 and intentionally repeated across dates for comparison. The 2005 and 2015 Landsat holdings are retained as source-register metadata only, not selectable observations.
