What is the best web site for historical aerials for the SE USA?

Thanks
David

USDA-FSA
Aerial Photography Field Office

www.apfo.usda.gov

If you are like me you will need to call them to find out what's available, they are very helpful. They have stuff going back to the 40's, but not for everywhere. I got a 1958 map this summer. I bought a print and also a scan.

click the little clock in Google Earth, a timeline will come up with a slider that you can use to "go back in time"

I would start with the USGS link below:

http://eros.usgs.gov/

And then the USDA link below:

http://www.nrcs.usda.gov/wps/portal/nrcs/main/national/home

USGS Earth Explorer is one source I use. It is somewhat user friendly:
