We used mobile GIS technologies (ESRI ArcPAD and wireless Bluetooth GPS) to take some digital videos and high-resolution photos by driving on Highway 52 and around Mission Trails Regional Park (MTRP) on November 12, 2003.

Special thanks to Lloyd (Pete) Coulter for driving the vehicle and taking these digital pictures. Also thanks to John Ryan for introducing panoramic image concepts.

The following videos and pictures show the boundaries of the wildfire and the preliminary damage in the burned areas (red shading). The following map was created by using a GPS tracking log data (the pink line shows our vehicle driving path) with the location (blue dot) of high-resolution pictures with panorama 360 degree view. The yellow line is the boundary of mission trail regional park. (Click the blue text to zoom in)
