Aerial Photograph


2. What problems might you infer or identify in using this type of photograph?
- In this photo, true colors cannot be seen so it is not an easy photo to study. Also, even though types of land are contrasted differently (forested areas, bare land, etc...) you cannot distinguish the specific types because in the photo everything has a red contrast. For example: On the golf course you can distinguish fairways and rough areas, but it is difficult to make out greens, tee boxes, bunkers, etc... If this was in true color then you could make out the specific details. Lastly, the scale of this photo may affect the users ability to perform on-screen digitizing. The features may not be clear enough to accurately map.

  1. All good points! Although if you were using for analysis you would use a lower flight line
