Hi All, Thank you to everyone who offered assistance, we have found a place to squat and scan for a few days. Also, several sources of historical digitized USGS quad were offered. We are actually digitizing polygons drawn on top of these topos, so we still have to digitize, but the historical resources will be useful for speeding georectification and rubber sheeting. For the list's reference: http://docs.unh.edu/nhtopos/nhtopos.htm http://www.mass.gov/anf/research-and-tech/it-serv-and-support/application-serv/office-of-geographic-information-massgis/datalayers/imquad.html Thanks again!

Any chance someone in the western Massachusetts area has a large-format scanner that we could come in and utilize for a day? We'd just need bring in the maps and scan them into digital files, all the processing will happen later. This would likely be August 15th or August 16th. Thanks in advance for any ideas/suggestions/leads!
