Infrared Aerial Photo


This image is a Colored Infrared Aerial Photo of a football staduim and its surrounding scenery, which includes Pine trees, buildings, and other vegetation. Infrared Aerial Photography is a type of remote sensing technology which can measure or observe objects without coming into direct contact with them. As we see in this image, land contrast is very pronounced in IR aerial photos. We can see Pine trees and other vegetation reflected in red.
