Infrared aerial photo



Infared aerial photos are photos taken from an aerial view using technology that transfers heat waves that objects give off into pictures. This is a photo from a farmland. Photos like these can be transmitted into cartographic data that can be helpful to show cropland depletion, irrigation problems, deforestation, erosion etc.
