HABS HAER HALS CEQA Photographer Dallas Fort Worth TX Texas Photography large format
Paul Chaplo photographing with a large format camera using archival black & white film and methodology that meets HDP specifications for HABS-type photography.

What is HABS/HAER/HALS/CEQA?
          Heritage Documentation Programs (HDP)
, part of the National Park Service, administers HABS (Historic American Buildings Survey), the Federal Government’s oldest preservation program, and companion programs HAER (Historic American Engineering Record), and HALS (Historic American Landscapes Survey). 
          Documentation produced through the programs constitutes oneof the nation’s largest archives of historic architectural, engineering, and landscape documentation. Records on over 40,000 historic sites, consisting of large-format, black and white photographs, measured drawings, and written historical reports, are maintained in a special collection at the Library of Congress, available to the public copyright free in both hard copy (at the Library of Congress Prints and Photographs Reading Room) and electronic formats on-line.

Why film, and beyond that -- large format, and black & white?
            Film
continues to be the best way to store visual information about architecture and engineering for the long term, which is why it is still the standard in the HABS, HAER, and HALS
collections. Photographs taken and printed for HABS, HAER, or HALS, in accordance with the
Secretary’s Standards are made from large-format, black and white film. The images are
perspective corrected in the field at the time of capture using a view camera. Large-format (4x5, 5x7, and 8x10) refers to the size of the negative in inches, not the print. The large-format negative is preferred for two reasons: longevity of the film and clarity of the
image. 
            The material stability of cut sheet film satisfies the archival requirements for longevity
Photography Guidelines, (500 years), while the clarity of the resulting image comes from a high level of resolution not possible in smaller film formats. Film can always be digitized but exclusively Large Format information may not always be recoverable due to the vulnerabilities of Large Format data including media degradation, hardware and software obsolescence, file format migration, proprietary formats, etc. In addition, maintenance of Large Format archives is much more expensive than maintenance of film archives. While the growing field of Large Format photography has resulted in decreased availability of some film processing materials and equipment, there still continues to be a broad range of materials available. 

What about large format aerial photography?
           
We are perhaps the sole provider of HABS-type large format aerial photography in the United States. With years of aerial photography experience, Paul Chaplo can fulfill your requirements for archival black & white aerial photography need using large format camera and helicopter.

Reflecting on what I do:
"I enjoy using my camera and lens to explore the spaces that you have designed ... to see design, materials, and construction quality / craftsmanship come together in building of historic value that is part of our heritage and history ...images that are also well-built, memorable, and evocative.

To translate a "place" ...a structure in the living context of the site and a truly livable space... into an image. That is my passion!"

-Paul Chaplo, M.F.A, A.I.A. Assoc."
