Some Fields where Aerial Photography is Important

The military was the first to begin using aerial photography and it is still used even though the technology has become much more sophisticated.
Real estate developers need to get aerial shots of huge properties which they would like to sell or develop.
Television stations and photojournalists need such pictures to document important weather, traffic or accident sites.
Construction companies use aerial photography as they need to have proof of how they went about with the construction if legal issues arise later on.
The tourism industry likes aerial pictures because it can show off its vast golf courses, resort beaches, RV parks and campgrounds from above.
City and state governments can use it for planning and development purposes.
Trained environmentalists use aerial photography to study the earth’s climate and land conditions.
